• 4K Aligned Random Read: up to 90K IOPs
• 4K Aligned Random Write: up to 80K IOPs
• Sequential Read (ATTO): up to 560MB/s
• Sequential Write (ATTO): up to 5100MB/S
• Terabytes Written (TBW): 240TB
• Interface: SATA III 6Gb/s
• Form Factor: 2.5"
• Operating Voltage: 5v
• Operating Temperature: 0 ~ 70°C

The T-Force Delta Max RGB is 2.5 mm thicker than most 2.5-inch SSDs available on the market today (which are 7 mm thick). Considering the fact that the drive is aimed at desktop enthusiasts, it is unlikely that it will be bought to use inside mobile PCs. The performance figures look average, but we'll see how it behaves in practice. The warranty is for 3 years (so nothing extraordinary here).
