Capacity
Notes: 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes; 1 sector = 512 bytes.
LBA count shown represents total user storage capacity and will remain the same throughout the life of the drive.
The total usable capacity of the SSD may be less than the total physical capacity because a small portion of the capacity is 
used for NAND flash management and maintenance purposes.
2.2
Performance
Notes: 1. Performance measured using Iometer* with Queue Depth equal to 32. Measurements are performed on 8 GB of Logical 
Block Address (LBA) range. Write Cache enabled. 4 KB = 4,096 bytes.
Note:
1. Performance measured using Iometer with Queue Depth equal to 32.
