Samsung 980 1 TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe M.2 Internal Solid State Drive

The amount of internal memory reserved as a cache within a device or component, expressed in a data size such as megabytes (MB) or gigabytes (GB). It represents the temporary storage used to accelerate read/write operations by holding frequently accessed data closer to the processor or controller.

The colour or combination of colours that a product’s outer shell or enclosure 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 case for consumers.

The total amount of digital storage that a disk drive—whether internal or external—can hold, expressed as a numeric value with an appropriate unit such as GB, MB, or TB. This attribute helps users understand how much data can be stored on the device and compare different drives.

The physical size or shape of a storage disk, indicating the dimensions and mounting format used in computers and other devices. Common values include standard sizes such as "3.5" in., "2.5" in., and form‑factor codes like "M.2 2280" or "mSATA". This attribute helps users identify which drives are compatible with a given enclosure, motherboard, or system.

The form or mounting style of a hardware component, such as internal, portable, desktop, rack‑mountable, or external. It indicates how the device is physically housed and where it can be installed.

Indicates the cryptographic method or algorithm used to protect data on the device, such as AES, WEP, or other encryption ciphers. The value is a free‑text string that may include the algorithm name and bit length (e.g., "AES 256-bit"), and can be presented in any case or format by the manufacturer.

A list of the physical or logical interfaces that a product can use to connect with other devices or components, such as USB, PCI Express, SATA, M.2, Ethernet, Thunderbolt, and similar standards.

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.

The version of the NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) specification that a storage device implements. It indicates the protocol features, performance capabilities, and compatibility with host systems. Values are typically numeric (e.g., 1.3, 2.0) and may include minor revisions or letters (e.g., 1.4a).

The temperature interval, expressed in degrees Celsius (°C), within which a product can safely operate without risk of damage or performance degradation. Values may be presented as a single temperature, a minimum–maximum range (e.g., "0 - 70 °C"), or an average operating point.

The maximum number of input/output operations per second that a storage device can perform when reading data in random 4‑kilobyte blocks. This metric reflects the device’s ability to quickly retrieve small amounts of information and is commonly used to compare SSDs, HDDs and other memory technologies.

A concise list of the minimum hardware, software, and firmware specifications required for a product to operate correctly. Each requirement is expressed in plain language and may include operating systems, processor types, memory size, storage capacity, graphics capabilities, or other relevant components. The list helps users verify that their environment meets the essential criteria before purchasing or installing the product.

The length of time for which the manufacturer guarantees that the product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship, typically expressed in years or months.

The maximum number of input/output operations per second that a storage device can perform when writing data randomly with 4‑kilobyte 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.
