FEATURES/ BENEFITS
1. Based on “out-of-box performance” using a SATA Rev. 3.0 motherboard. Speed may vary due to host
hardware, software, and usage. IOMETER Random 4k Random Read/Write is based on 8GB partition.
2. Some of the listed capacity on a Flash storage device is used for formatting and other functions and
thus is not available for data storage. As such, the actual available capacity for data storage is less
than what is listed on the products. For more information, go to Kingston’s Flash memory guide at
kingston.com/ ashguide.
3. Limited warranty based on 3 years or SSD “Life Remaining” which can be found using the Kingston
SSD Manager (kingston.com/SSDManager). A new, unused product will show a wear indicator value
of one hundred (100), whereas a product that has reached its endurance limit of program erase cycles
will show a wear indicator value of one (1). See kingston.com/wa for details.
4. Total Bytes Written (TBW) is derived from the JEDEC Client Workload (JESD219A).
