This SSD is designed for use in desktop and notebook computer workloads and is not intended for Server environments.

1.Based on “out-of-box performance” using a PCIe 4.0 motherboard. Speed may vary due to host hardware, software and usage.
2.Some of the listed capacity on a Flash storage device is used for formatting and other functions and is thus 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/flashguide.
3.Total Bytes Written (TBW) is derived from the JEDEC Client Workload (JESD219A).
4.Limited warranty based on 3 years or “Percentage Used”, which can be found using the Kingston SSD Manager (Kingston.com/ SSDManager). For NVMe SSDs, a new unused product will show a Percentage Used value of 0, whereas a product that reaches its warranty limit will show a Percentage Used value of greater than or equal to one hundred (100). See Kingston.com/wa for details.
5.4TB capacity launching in Q4 2024
