1. Product Description
1.1 Introduction
Apacer mSATA H1 delivers all the advantages of flash disk technology with the Serial ATA 6.0 Gbps interface
and is fully compliant with the standard mSATA form factor, known as JEDEC MO-300 standard. The module is
designed to operate at optimal efficiency and reliability. Its performance can reach up to 125 MB/s read and up
to 110 MB/s write. Meanwhile, the power consumption of the mSATA module is much lower than traditional
hard drives.

*Display of total bytes varies from file systems.
**Cylinders, heads or sectors are not applicable for these capacities. Only LBA addressing applies.
LBA count addressed in the table above indicates total user storage capacity and will remain the same throughout
the lifespan of the device. However, the total usable capacity of the SSD is most likely to be less than the total
physical capacity because a small portion of the capacity is reserved for device maintenance usages.
