Enterprise SATA SSD for Data Centres

The Kingston SEDC600ME/480G is a 2.5‑inch SATA III drive built for mixed‑use server and data‑centre workloads. It delivers 480 GB of 3D TLC storage with hardware power‑loss protection and 256‑bit AES encryption.

Fits Standard 2.5‑Inch Bays

The 7 mm height and SATA 6 Gbps interface let it drop into any compatible drive bay or hot‑swap tray without extra cabling or adapters. Low idle power of 1.30 W leaves more thermal headroom for surrounding components.

Sustained Mixed‑Use Consistency

Rated at 1 DWPD and 876 TBW, the drive maintains up to 94,000 random read IOPS and 41,000 random write IOPS with read latency below 130 µs and write latency below 70 µs. MTBF of 2,000,000 hours and operating vibration resistance of 2.17 G peak support continuous operation.
