The Kingston FURY Renegade G5 series is now available in capacities ranging from 1024 GB (1 TB) to the new 8192 GB (8 TB) model.
The drives are backed by a limited five-year warranty and free technical support. Kingston notes that this SSD is designed for desktop and notebook computer workloads and is not intended for server environments.
