As used for storage capacity, one megabyte (MB) = one million bytes, one gigabyte (GB) =
one billion bytes, and one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes. 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 or 1.5 Gb/s transfer rate calculated according to the Serial
ATA specification published by the SATA-IO organization as of the date of this specification
sheet. Visit www.sata-io.org for details.
