1Based upon read speed, unless otherwise stated. 1MB/s = 1 million bytes per second. IOPS = input/output operations per second. Based on internal testing; performance may vary depending upon host device, usage conditions, drive capacity, and other factors.
2 1TB = 1 trillion bytes. Actual user capacity may be less depending on operating environment.
3 TBW (terabytes written) values calculated using JEDEC client workload (JESD219) and vary by product capacity.
4 Over 100% more power efficient than 2TB WD_BLACK™ SN850X NVMe™ SSD.
5 Power consumption is measured with IOmeter1.1.0 version with AMD Ryzen 9 9950X 16-Core Processor CPU@4.30GHz, DDR5 5600MT/s 16GBx2, OS-Windows 11 Pro 64bit, Chipset-Gigabyte-X870E. Based on internal testing; performance may vary depending upon host device, usage conditions, drive capacity and other factors.
