Product Information

Low-profile graphene aluminium heat spreader - Exceptional thermal dissipation keeps your drive cool with maximum performance. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. As fast at game loading and file transfers as the KC3000 is, the WD Black SN850 took off in PCMark 10’s workloads, reaching first place and leaving the Kingston in second.

While the flash interface speed played a big part in its victories, they were also achieved due in part to a larger dynamic SLC cache than compared to the Seagate and Corsair. Unlike the previous E18 + 176L competitors we’ve reviewed, the KC3000’s SLC cache is much larger and showed only one degradation stage from empty to full. The drive deploys an ultra-thin graphene-aluminum heat spreader that lets it fit into slots too small for SSDs with finned metal heatsinks.
