Key Features
Certification
A list of official certifications or compliance marks that the product has received from regulatory bodies, safety organizations, or industry standards groups. Each entry represents a distinct certification such as CE, FCC, RoHS, UL, or WEEE, and may include additional details like version numbers or specific test reports.
CE, FCC, BSMI
Colour
The colour or combination of colours that a product is available in, expressed as common names such as "Black", "Silver" or comma‑separated lists like "Black, White". It indicates the visual appearance of the item for consumers.
Black,Green
Component for
Specifies the type of device or system that the product is intended to be used with, such as a PC, server, notebook, surveillance system, or other electronic equipment. The value represents a single category and can be used to filter or group products by their target platform.
Notebook
Data transfer rate
The highest theoretical speed at which a device can send or receive data, expressed in bits per second (bps) or its multiples such as kbps, mbps, gbps, etc. It represents the upper bound of throughput under optimal conditions and is useful for comparing performance across devices and interfaces.
6 Gbit/s
Depth
The linear measurement of an object from front to back or top to bottom, expressed in a physical unit such as millimeters, centimeters, inches, etc. It indicates how deep the item is and can be used for fitting, compatibility, or spatial planning.
0.141" (3.58 mm)
Height
The vertical dimension of a product measured from its lowest to highest point. It is expressed in a physical unit such as millimetres, centimetres or inches and applies to any item where height is relevant, including books, electronics, furniture and other objects.
1.65" (42 mm)
Mac operating systems supported
A list of macOS operating system versions that the product supports or is compatible with, such as "macOS 10.15 Catalina", "macOS 11 Big Sur" or newer releases. Each entry represents a distinct OS version that can run on or be supported by the device.
Yes
Memory type
The classification of the memory technology used in a device, such as DDR4 SDRAM, LPDDR3, GDDR6, or other variants. It indicates the architecture and generation of the RAM modules installed or supported by the product.
3D TLC
Native Command Queuing (NCQ) Yes
Operating voltage
The electrical voltage that a device is designed to operate at, expressed in volts (V). It may represent a single nominal value or a range indicating the minimum and maximum supply voltages compatible with the product. This attribute helps users verify that their power source matches the device’s requirements.
3.3 V
Random read 4KB
The maximum number of input/output operations per second that a storage device can perform when reading data randomly. This metric indicates how quickly the device can retrieve small, non‑sequential pieces of information and is useful for evaluating performance in database or high‑transaction workloads.
65000 IOPS
Random write 4KB
The maximum number of input/output operations per second that a storage device can perform when writing data randomly with 4‑KB blocks. This metric indicates how quickly the device can handle small, non‑sequential write requests and is useful for evaluating performance in database or high‑transaction workloads.
85000 IOPS
Read speed
The highest rate at which a storage device can retrieve data, expressed in bits per second or commonly used abbreviations such as MB/s or GB/s. This value indicates how quickly the device can read information for processing or transfer.
560 MB/s
SMART support
Indicates whether the product supports Intel Smart Response Technology (or equivalent), a feature that uses flash memory as a cache to accelerate disk access and improve overall system performance.
Yes
SSD Capacity 240 GB
SSD form factor
The physical form factor indicates the standard size and shape of an SSD, such as M.2, 2.5‑inch, U.2 or mSATA. It helps determine compatibility with motherboards, enclosures and other hardware components.
M.2
TRIM support
Indicates whether the storage device supports the TRIM command, which allows an operating system to inform the drive which blocks of data are no longer considered in use and can be wiped internally. This feature improves performance and longevity on solid‑state drives by enabling efficient garbage collection.
Yes
Weight
The mass of the product expressed in a standard unit such as grams or kilograms. It represents how heavy the item is and can be used for shipping calculations, handling instructions, or consumer information.
0.282 oz (8 g)
