This SSD contains 2 Micron ‘MT29F512G08EBHBFB27A2WC1-M’ NAND flash chips. They should be 2 x 512GB = 1TB. Why only 256GB are used? I have found ‘MT29F512G08EBHBFB27A3WC1-R’ chip only on Micron site (512G) (the name differences are 2: 2 -> 3, M -> R). The chip name used by Goldenfir SSD is not possible to find it in Internet. Why? I looking for answers of these 2 questions.
Both ‘MT29F512G08EBHBFB27A3WC1-R’ and MT29F512G08EBHBFB27A2WC1-M’ has a density of 512 Gb (Gigabit) which translates to a 64 GB capacity so for a 256 GB SSD, 4 of these chips would be needed and this Goldenfir unit has only 2 NAND chips. Nevertheless, you got a point.
I will try to contact Micron’s technical support and ask about these ‘MT29F512G08EBHBFB27A2WC1-M’ NAND flash chips.
