Note about compatibility and throughput:
- Compatibility:
- Fully compatible with Mac Pros and PCs offering an available PCIe 2.0 x1 slot or better.
- For full throughput on PCs:
- PCIe 2.0 x1 slot or better is required. Use of a PCIe 1.0 x1 slot will reduce performance.
- For full throughput on Mac Pros:
- 2010 & 2009: Use either x4 or x16 as all will provide full throughput.
- 2008: Use x16 slot for full throughput. Use of the PCIe 1.0 x1 slot will reduce performance.
- 2007 & 2006: All slots are compatible, but are PCIe 1.0 slots and will deliver reduced performance.
- 2010 & 2009: Use either x4 or x16 as all will provide full throughput.

- 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.
- In terms of standard gigabytes, 1GiB ≈ 1.074GB and refers to the actual formatted capacity of shown under Mac OS 10.5 or earlier and Microsoft Windows OS.
- Specific application environments such as temperature and duty cycle will affect the overall reliability.
- Performance may vary by machine or the SSD installed - see compatibility tab for details.
- Accelsior may be used with Bootcamp only if the entire formatted capacity of the Accelsior model is completely dedicated to the Windows partition.
