One of the first NVMe SSDs on the market with a capacity exceeding 10TB, the 9200 SSDs from Micron offer high capacity, fast speeds, and low latency for high-performance functions such as application and database acceleration, online transaction processing (OLTP), high-frequency trading, and high-performance computing.

Available now from Mouser Electronics, the SSDs blend the capabilities of 3D NAND and NVMe technologies for enterprise storage. The devices are built on an innovative architecture that combines NVMe protocols on a PCIe connection to deliver fast enterprise flash performance up to 10 times’ faster than SATA SSDs, plus 3D NAND high-density storage that conserves power and rack space.

Sequential read/write transfer speeds are up to 5.5 and 3.5GBytes per second, with random read/write transfer speeds up to 900K and 275K input/output operations per second (IOPS) to turn data into information with low latency and high performance.

The devices include three endurance classes: 9200 PRO is designed for read-centric use at roughly one drive write per day (DWPD) with capacities from 1.9B to 7.6TB, while the 9200 MAX supports mixed-use workloads at about three DWPD in capacities from 1.6TB to 6.4TB. The 9200 ECO drives offer the highest capacities at 8TB or 11TB and are designed for fewer than one DWPD.

The Micron 9200 SSD family is designed as the storage foundation for the Micron SolidScale platform, providing greater capacity for more efficient workload optimisation and reducing total cost of ownership.

With the 9200, SolidScale will be capable of over 250 TB per node, scaling over 5PB per rack of one of the highest performance NVMe SSD available in shared storage today.
