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 6 Gb/s transfer rate calculated according to the Serial
ATA specification published by the SATA-IO organization as of the date of this document. Visit www.sata-
io.org for details.
