Micron's 5400 SATA SSD was officially released recently, which means that we have successfully introduced Micron's cutting-edge 176-layer NAND technology to the data center SATA platform. Although the technology circle often focuses on new technologies, new protocols and new architectures, it is well known that the current SATA platform still invests heavily in key infrastructure. Although they also want to apply the latest technology, they are not yet ready for updates and iterations.

The SATA platform is a technology that:

It has been deployed in data centers for many years as a storage workhorse, responsible for running and delivering critical workloads and services, including business intelligence, noSQL, block/object storage, and even boot services. Micron is always committed to providing all customers with the latest NAND excellence technology. Therefore, we launched the new 5400 SATA SSD for data centers.

With the 5400 SSD, Micron brings the world’s leading 176-layer NAND technology to data center SATA SSDs1 ^. This advanced technology optimizes performance, improves the customer experience, meets typical network bandwidth requirements, and delivers best-in-class mixed write ^performance2 while maintaining the embedded foundation of the SATA platform . In addition, we have the industry ’s broadest portfolio3 ^to meet different form factors.

The 5400 SSD is the latest in Micron’s 11th generation of SATA SSDs ^for data centers. The proven, stable architecture has been used for many years and is trusted by major server OEMs ⁵ to support critical infrastructure around the world.

Micron has shipped millions of 5000 Series ⁶ SSDs since 2017 , and the 5400 SSD can easily replace or upgrade existing SSD products and mechanical hard disk drives (HDDs) with a maximum capacity of up to 8TB ^7. This has the benefit of accelerating the customer qualification process of the 5400 SSD while improving the performance and life of the SATA platform.

In addition, the Micron 5400 SSD is renowned for being 50 percent more reliable than other leading SATA SSD products on the market ⁸ . This means longer life and fewer failures, all backed by an industry-leading 5-year warranty. The Micron 5400 SATA SSD is a high-performance, low-cost technology ideal for boot service and an ideal replacement for mechanical hard drives. It can also coexist with NVMe SSD environments, providing overall platform quality of service and excellent total cost of ownership.

With Micron's newly launched 5400 SATA SSD, data center operators can continue to deploy SATA platforms using high-security, low-power SSDs. The proven SATA interface based on the latest NAND technology can extend server life or refresh platform deployments.

We support you from design to delivery.

1 Micron's 5400 SATA SSD, which will be launched in June 2022, is the world's first data center SATA SSD product to be shipped and fully launched.

2 According to public data comparison, Micron 5400 MAX can provide up to 520 MB/s sequential write speed, second only to its two competitors (Samsung PM897 and SK Hynix SE-5031) with a maximum sequential write speed of 510 MB/s. In addition, Micron 5400 MXA can achieve 65,000 random writes per second, while Samsung PM897 and SK Hynix SE-5031 have random writes per second of 60,000 and 65,000 respectively.

3 Micron's 5400 family includes 14 data center SKUs (multiple capacity/form factor combinations, including power loss protection and data path protection), compared to competing brands Solidigm and Samsung's 12 and 10 SKUs in the Solidigm D5-4520/4620 and Samsung PM893/897 product lines, respectively.

4 The 5400 SSD is Micron's 11th generation of data center SATA SSD products (P200, P300, P400m, P400e, M500DC, M510DC, 5100, 5200, 5210, 5300, 5400)

5 Micron's 5000 series SATA SSDs have been validated by all major server OEMs (based on IDC server market share).
