5.2.1 Access time Access measurements are taken with nominal power at 25°C ambient temperature. All times are measured using drive diagnostics. The specifications in the table below are defined as follows: • Page-to-page access time is an average of all possible page-to-page accesses in both directions for a sequentially preconditioned drive. • Average access time is a true statistical random average of at least 5000 measurements of accesses between programmable pages on a randomly preconditioned drive.

5.2.1
Access time
Access measurements are taken with nominal power at 25°C ambient temperature. All times are measured
using drive diagnostics. The specifications in the table below are defined as follows:
Page-to-page access time is an average of all possible page-to-page accesses in both directions for a
sequentially preconditioned drive.
Average access time is a true statistical random average of at least 5000 measurements of accesses
between programmable pages on a randomly preconditioned drive.
5.2.2
FORMAT UNIT command execution time for 512-byte LBA’s (minutes)
The device may be formatted as either a Thin Provisioned device or a Fully Provisioned device. The default
format is Thin Provisioned and is recommended for most applications. Thin Provisioning provides the most
flexibility for the device to manage the flash medium to maximize endurance.
