(1) Sequential performance is measured with Iometer 1.1.0.

(2) TMC survey based on sequential read and write speeds of 128KiB units, using TR200 series models under TMC test conditions. Read and write speed may vary, depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size. TMC defines a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes and a kibibyte (KiB) as 210 bytes, or 1,024 bytes.

(3) Random performance is measured with CrystalDiskMark 5.1.2.

(4) TMC survey based on random read and write speeds of 4KiB units, using TR200 series models under TMC test conditions. Read and write speed may vary, depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size. TMC defines a kibibyte (KiB) as 210 bytes, or 1,024 bytes.

(5) Definition of capacity: Toshiba Memory defines a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes, a gigabyte (GB) as 1,000,000,000 bytes and a terabyte (TB) as 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1GB = 2 <
