All tests and benchmarking are conducted in a controlled environment, while ensuring that the ambient air temperature is kept at a consistent 22 degrees Celsius. Testing will consist of the SST-EC03B being benchmarked using the USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 specifications with a SilverStone SST-TS07B external enclosure.
