Operating Power 11W Power Consumption (Idle, PS3) <144mW Power Consumption(PS4, L1.2) <85mW Temperature (Operating) 0°C to 70°C Temperature (Storage) -40°C to 85°C Warranty 1. Limited 5-years or 700TBW. 2. Limited warranty based on 5 years or 700TBW, whichever comes first. (*TBW is evaluated by JEDEC workload standard. ) *TBW (Terabyte Written): Terabytes Written is the total amount of data that can be written into a SSD before it is likely to fail. 3. When the usage of an NVME SSD as indicated by the "Percentage Used" (SMART ID: 05) in SMART page of "GIGABYTE SSD toolbox" reaches 100 means out of warranty. (A new unused product will show the number of 0) Note • Test system configuration: configuration may vary by models, we will choose the latest platform for verification. • Performance may vary based on SSD's firmware version and system hardware & configuration. Sequential performance measurements based on CrystalDiskMark and IOmeter 1.1.0. • Speeds based on internal testing. Actual performance may vary. • 1GB = 1 billion bytes. Actual useable capacity may vary. * To keep AORUS Gen5 12000 SSD from overheating, please adopt the motherboard build-in heatsink or Thermal Guard Xtreme heatsink to prevent throttling.
