It can read and write almost the entire drive in 1-2 seconds. Crazy, how fast SSD has become these days.

Sadly. this drive only works on desktop PC because it uses the PCI-Express slot on a desktop PC, and some servers. I think most consoles don't have PCI-Express slots because the video chip are built-into the Processor, or motherboard.

I think video editors would also love to have such a fast drive since copying and pasting big video files to a desktop computer to edit now takes a lot of time now that there are video cameras which can record video in 4K resolution and higher.
