Kingston announces Business Equipped SSD’s featuring SandForce Controllers

By Dan Stoltz

Kingston just announced the SSDNow KC100. The Kingston SSDNow KC100 is a SATA III 6Gbps business Equipped SSD. Topping the list of features is the latest SandForce Controller and has sequential read speeds topping out at up to 555MB/s and sequential write speeds as fast as 510MB/s! The Kingston SSDNow features AES-128 and AES-256 encryption at the drive level, because it’s at the drive level it won’t drain your system resources.

Image Description

The new KC100 self-encrypts to provide full and immediate client-level data encryption. With two embedded encryption engines, running in both AES-128 and AES-256, encryption is performed at the drive level without draining host system resources and slowing down data transfer rates. KC100 is also backwards-compatible with current SATA 2 systems so investments are future-proofed for the next client system upgrade.
