The Kingston UV400 was a solid-state drive in the 2.5" form factor, launched on May 31st, 2016, that is no longer in production. It was available in capacities ranging from 120 GB to 960 GB. This page reports specifications for the 120 GB variant. With the rest of the system, the Kingston UV400 interfaces using a SATA 6 Gbps connection. The SSD controller is the 88SS1074 Dean from Marvell, a DRAM cache chip is available. Kingston has installed TLC NAND flash on the UV400, the flash chips are made by Toshiba. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are absorbed more quickly. The UV400 is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 550 MB/s and 350 MB/s write; random IO reaches 90K IOPS for read and 15K for writes.
At its launch, the SSD was priced at 52 USD. The warranty length is set to three years, which is above average, but shorter than the five years offered by many other vendors. Kingston guarantees an endurance rating of 50 TBW, a typical value for consumer SSDs.
