This model is available at Passcode East Africa Techverse Limited, one of the leading sources for genuine Dahua SSDs in Kenya.

Exceptional PCIe Gen3x4 Speed

Harnessing the PCIe Gen3x4 interface and NVMe 1.3 protocol, the Dahua C900N512G achieves up to 2000MB/s read and 1450MB/s write speeds, drastically reducing system boot time and accelerating large file transfers.

Its 4K random read speed reaches 150,000 IOPS, while write speeds reach 200,000 IOPS, ensuring excellent responsiveness for data-heavy operations, content creation, and gaming applications.

Advanced 3D NAND & LDPC ECC Reliability

Built using high-grade 3D NAND flash memory, the drive ensures improved data density, reduced power consumption, and better resistance to wear. The integrated LDPC ECC (Error Correction Code) and 4K LDPC technology minimize data corruption and extend the drive’s service life, while S.M.A.R.T. monitoring helps users track drive health and performance in real time.

The MTBF rating of 1,500,000 hours and TBW (Total Bytes Written) of 256TB make the C900N512G ideal for long-term, high-performance computing needs.

Efficient Power and Thermal Management

Featuring maximum power consumption of 3521mW and idle power of 1188mW, this SSD provides excellent power efficiency, making it suitable for laptops and energy-conscious desktops. The drive’s optimized heat management ensures sustained performance even during extended workloads.

Compact Design and Build Quality

The M.2 2280 form factor (80.0 × 22.0 × 2.25mm) fits seamlessly into modern motherboards and compact systems. With a lightweight build of 8 grams, it’s easy to install while maintaining durability through shock resistance up to 1500G (0.5ms) and vibration resistance (10–200Hz, 0.5G).

This makes it an ideal upgrade for users seeking both portability and robust performance in a variety of environments across Kenya.

Operating Conditions and Endurance

Operating smoothly between 0°C and +70°C, and storing safely between –40°C and +85°C, the SSD withstands diverse environmental conditions. Its humidity resistance (5%–95%, non-condensing) ensures consistent reliability in both home and industrial setups across Kenya’s variable climates.
