1) 1MB = 1,000,000 Bytes, 1GB = 1,000,000,000 Bytes, Unformatted Capacity.
User accessible capacity may vary depending on operating environment and
formatting.
2) 1 Sector = 512Bytes, Max. LBA represents the total user addressable sectors
in LBA mode and calculated by IDEMA rule
3) Actual performance may vary depending on use conditions and environment. Performance measurements based on TurboWri te technology.
4) Measured by SMART Temperature. Proper airflow recommended.
5) Active power is measured on sequential write and read.
6) Idle Power is measured on Idle status with L1.2+APST/ASPM on.
7) Active/Idle/L1.2 Power are measured up to 1TB.

This document describes the specification of PM981 SSD which uses PCIe interface.
The PM981 is fully consist of semiconductor device and using NAND Flash Memory which has a high reliability and a high technology in a small form factor for using a SSD and supporting Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) 3.0 interface standard up to 4 lanes shows much faster performance than previous SATA SSDs.
The PM981 provides 256GB, 512GB, 1TB and 2TB capacities. It’s sequential performance is up to 3,200MB/s for read operation and 2,400MB/s for write
operation by 4 lanes. It’s random performance is up to 380k IOPS for read and 440k IOPS for write operation by 4 lanes. It could also provide rugged features with an extreme environment with a high MTBF.
IF THERE IS ANY OTHER OPERATION TO IMPLEMENT IN ADDITION TO SPECIFICATION
IN THE DATASHEET OR JEDEC STANDARD, PLEASE CONTACT EACH BRANCH OFFICE OR
HEADQUARTERS OF SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS.
1) Active power is measured on sequential write and read.
2) Idle Power is measured on Idle status with L1.2+APST/ASPM on.
3) If L1.2 time logging option is enabled, L1.2 Power could be 5mW.
4) Active/Idle/L1.2 Power are measured up to 1TB.

This chapter provides the information for the reliability features of the SSD.
2.4.1 MTBF
MTBF is Mean Time Between Failure, and is the predicted elapsed time between inherent failures of a system during operation. As same word,
AFR (annual failure ratio) is 0.4%. MTBF can be calculated as the arithmetic average time between failures of a system.

Caution: Any changes or modifications in construction of this device which are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful int erfer ence to radio communications, Howe ver, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by tur ning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measur es:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operated the equipment under FCC rules.
