Another point of caution is be careful to include the proper number of factors of 1.024 in file sizes and specs. A kB is 1024 bytes. A MB is 1024*1024 bytes. A GB is 1024*1024*1024 bytes. Lots of errors on internet postings can be traced to this error.
FWIW: Using kilo for 1024 was a convention in the computer industry that didn't match other standards and has been addressed by creating new prefixes for those binary units. A kilobyte is 1,000 bytes. A kibibyte is 1,024 bytes. The abbreviation for kibibyte is KiB.
Windows 10 shows file sizes in KB, MB and GB. They are all in terms of 1024 factors. KiB is not used. You can see the actual number of bytes by using "Properties", and then it gives the number of bytes. It might be even more confusing if some were given in terms of factors of 1000 and others in terms of factors of 1024.
In this case I stated the write rate in MB/sec, where MB means 1024*1024 bytes. The spec on the CFE and UHS-II cards are given in MB/sec and I assume they also are given in terms of factors of 1024.
