Kingston Digital, the Flash memory affiliate of Kingston Technology Company, has launched its NxG SSDNow V+ solid-state drive (SSD), the SSDNow V+100.
The company said that its new drive features enhanced garbage collection that is not OS dependent and supports sequential speed of 230MB/sec. read and 180MB/sec. write.
The SSDNow V+100 incorporates an enhanced ‘always-on’ garbage collection feature, which cleanses redundant data from the drive to prevent performance degradation and maintains the drive over its life cycle.
In addition, it supports S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology), and TRIM that notifies the SSD which data blocks are available to be written to.
With a 2.5inches form factor, this new series is now available in 64GB, 96GB, 128GB, 256GB and 512GB capacities.
