1 Based on read speed, unless otherwise stated. 1 MB/s = 1 million bytes per second. Based on internal testing; performance may vary depending upon host device, usage conditions, drive capacity, and other factors.
2 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = 1 trillion bytes. Actual user capacity may be less depending on operating environment.
3 Backward compatible with PCIe Gen3 x4, PCIe Gen3 x2, PCIe Gen3 x1, PCIe Gen2 x4, PCIe Gen2 x2 and PCIe Gen2 x1
4 TBW (terabytes written) values calculated using JEDEC client workload (JESD219) and vary by product capacity.
5 Test Conditions: Performance is based on the CrystalDiskMark™ 8.0.1 benchmark using a 1000MB LBA range on AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-core processor, BIOS 4204. Microsoft® Windows® 11 Pro x64 2009 (19043.1023) using Microsoft StorNVMe™ driver, secondary drive. 1 MB/s = 1 million bytes per second. Based on internal testing; performance may vary depending upon host device, usage conditions, drive capacity, and other factors.
6 Operational temperature is defined as temperature reported by the drive. Note that drive temperature readings are expected to be higher than ambient temperature when the SSD is placed inside a system. The SSD box package is rated up to 60ºC.
7 Non-operational storage temperature does not guarantee data retention.
