USER MANUAL BG3 TOSHIBA
The BG3 series leverages 64-layer, 3-bit-per-cell (TLC) BICS FLASH™ and features NVMe™ Revision 1.2.1. With Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology, this SSD series retains high performance in a DRAM-less architecture, while enabling reduced power and a smaller footprint.
BG3 SSDs, as an innovative, next generation single-package ball grid array (BGA) SSD product line, harness the flexibility in system design that enables mobile computing and IoT embedded devices to be smaller, lighter, faster, and more power efficient. Also, these power-saving BG3 SSDs offer data center applications an alternative solution for server boot storage.
The BG3 series is available in 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB capacities. All three models are available in a surface-mount single package M.2 1620 or a removable module M.2 2230 form factor. BG3 SED models are also available.

Note: 1) Definition of capacity: Toshiba Memory Corporation defines a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes, a gigabyte (GB) as 1,000,000,000 bytes and a terabyte (TB) as 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1GB = 230 = 1,073,741,824 bytes and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity (including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size, formatting, settings, software and operating system, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
2) Read and write speed, tested on the state of "Host Memory Buffer (HMB) = On", may vary depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size. 1 MiB (mebibyte) = 220 bytes = 1,048,576 bytes, and 1 MB (megabyte) = 1,000,000 bytes.
3) MTTF (Mean Time to Failure) is not a guarantee or estimate of product life; it is a statistical value related to mean failure rates for a large number of products which may not accurately reflect actual operation. Actual operating life of the product may be different from the MTTF.
4) The Safety/EMI Standard is supported for KBG3xZMSxxxx only.
