Render-blocking requests
2.8 s9 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 2.8 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.4 s · 209 KiBAbout 209 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.4 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 65
65/100Your mobile performance score is 65 (desktop: 93). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused CSS
610 ms · 135 KiBAbout 135 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 610 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
714 KiB13 images could be 714 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
550 ms · 111 KiB8 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (111 KiB).
Legacy JavaScript
200 ms · 15 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 15 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Optanon, dga.jp and Google Fonts and others), adding 324 KiB and 146 ms of main-thread time.
Minify CSS
150 ms · 15 KiB15 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 65 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 93 but mobile only 65. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.8 s
A phone's processor spends 0.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 221 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms

Core Web Vitals

Images and page weight
12 images in older formats
12 images (798 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
10 images below the first screen load straight away
10 images further down the page (612 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.4 g of CO₂ per visit
0.41 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.41 g of CO₂e: 49.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 1.5 MB in 66 requests
1.5 MBYour homepage downloads 1.5 MB in 66 requests on a phone: images 873 KiB (35), scripts 423 KiB (16) and stylesheets 128 KiB (7). That is a lean page.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Invalid ARIA attributes
1 element use ARIA attributes their role does not allow, which confuses screen readers.
1 button without a name
1 button has no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
<dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements (1 element)
<dl> elements must only directly contain properly-ordered <dt> and <dd> groups, <script>, <template> or <div> elements: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
3 form fields without a label
3 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (3 elements)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 3 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 91 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No meta description
No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
124 internal links, 52 external
The homepage links to 124 pages on ocz.com and 52 external pages.
5 checks passed
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Legacy Personal SSD Products”.
Title: 50 characters
Your title is a healthy 50 characters: “Legacy Products | KIOXIA - United States (English)”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://americas.kioxia.com/en-us/personal/support/legacy-products.html.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://americas.kioxia.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://americas.kioxia.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (755 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
3 pages without a meta description
https://americas.kioxia.com/pt-br/top.html, https://americas.kioxia.com/es-lar/top.html and https://americas.kioxia.com/en-us/business/memory/selector.html have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
https://americas.kioxia.com/en-us/top.html and https://americas.kioxia.com/en-ca/top.html use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
2 pages slow to respond
