Capacity & Speed Notes
Advertised speeds are reference values measured under ideal conditions using DiskMark on a new, unused drive. Actual performance may vary based on interface type, host hardware, and operating system. Flash storage capacity is calculated using decimal notation (1 GB = 1,000 MB); your operating system may display slightly less due to binary calculation. A small portion of each drive's capacity is also reserved for Bad Block Management firmware to ensure stable operation.
