5.2.2FORMAT UNIT command execution time for
The device may be formatted as either a Thin Provisioned device or a Fully Provisioned device. The default format is Thin Provisioned and is recommended for most applications. Thin Provisioning provides the most flexibility for the device to manage the flash medium to maximize endurance.

Peak performance is defined as the typical best case performance that the product will be able to achieve when the product is preconditioned as mentioned and host commands are aligned on 4KB boundaries.
Sustained performance is defined as the typical worst case performance that the product will be able to achieve when the product is preconditioned as mentioned and host commands are aligned on 4KB boundar- ies. Write values also take into account the worst case performance throttling that may occur to ensure the product meets specified reliability specifications.
