Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment. As used for buffer or cache, one megabyte (MB) = 1, 048, 576 bytes. As used for transfer rate or interface, megabyte per second (MB/s) = one million bytes per second, and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second. Effective maximum SATA 3 Gb/s and SATA 6 Gb/s transfer rates calculated according to the Serial ATA specification published by the SATA-IO organization as of the date of this specification sheet.
