The Kingston KC1000 series has solid performance and we were shocked to see that we greatly exceeded the rated speeds on the 960GB model that we tested. Kingston says that the KC1000 960GB drive has up to 2700 MB/s sequential read and 1600 MB/s sequential...
We have to admit we love testing new SSD's with their blazing fast performance and that new hardware burn in smell you get when you really put the benchmarks to a drive. The Kingston KC1000 M.2 480GB NVMe SSD roars in at 2.7GB/s read and 1.6GB/s write whi...

4K performance is a bit disappointing, Kitguru says: Kingston's KC1000 NVMe SSD is the fastest Kingston drive we have tested to date. It combines fast performance and a large capacity with very strong all round endurance, Rating: 8.5, Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
It is somewhat of a surprise to find that the fastest Kingston drive we have tested to date doesn't come from the companies high performance HyperX line. The KC1000 is listed under the company's Consumer, Business and System Builder segments. This does ma...
