    1. 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon operating environment (typically 5-10% less). The actual total capacity will depend on your own defined file settings/preferences.
    2. Temperature reporting is currently an unsupported feature because due to the operating characteristics of SSDs, it is highly unlikely one would ever exceed an OWC Mercury SSD's stated operating temperature ceiling of 158F/70C. However, we are looking into supporting this feature in the future via a firmware update. Firmware updates can be found here: http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/OWC/SSD.

    Drive fit into OWC enclosure and worked great

    Bought a bare drive to use with the inexpensive OWC Express USB 3.2 (5Gb/s) Bus-Powered Portable External Storage Enclosure and gave my older BigSur MacBookPro a new lease on life by giving me 2 TB of space to hold the overflow from my full 1TB built in drive. It took a few hours to move 900 GB of videos to the new drive.

    I would recommend this product to a friend!
