We received the DD512 SSD in the following packaging; pretty stylish don't you think?

The package includes a USB 3.0 cable.

Sized at 74mm (2.9in) x 60mm (2.4in) x 23mm (0.9in) (W x L x H), the drive's small form factor make it for use on the go or at home or office.
On the top side of the device there is the Lexar logo embossed on the plastic cover.

A LED capacity meter is on the front allowing you to see the available storage space at a glance. Each white LED indicates 20% full when illuminated. The 6th blue LED indicates power and activity.

Turning the device around you'll see the USB 3.0 port on the rear side.

The drive uses the SM2246XT SATA 6Gb/s SSD controller, which has been designed for small form factor and low power client and industrial storage solutions for PCs, Ultrabooks, Tablet PCs, and other embedded applications. It has a single-chip, DRAM-less design supports the latest generation NAND in high-speed Toggle, ONFI, or Async mode.

The controller supports the following speeds:

Sequential Read: 520 MB/s
Sequential Write: 300 MB/s
Random Read: 28,000 IOPS
Random Write: 65,000 IOPS

However, the DD512 512GB supports only 450 MB/s for sequential read and 245 MB/s for write.

Below you see more features of the device, reported by Sysoft Sandra. The available capacity for storing your files is 477GB. The drive also supports Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) and Data Set Management command (TRIM), but not Native Command Queuing or SATA Device Sleep (DEVSLP) - features provided by the controller but disabled by Lexar:
