Micron 7300 6.40 TB NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 U.2 2.5" Internal SSD – Mixed Use, TAA Compliant

In modern data centers, storage performance is a foundational pillar for delivering fast, reliable applications. The Micron 7300 6.40 TB NVMe SSD brings enterprise-grade speed, reliability, and capacity to a broad range of workloads—from transactional databases and virtualization to real-time analytics and cloud-native services. Built as a 2.5-inch internal drive with a U.2 interface, it slots into standard server trays and backplanes, enabling seamless upgrades and scalable deployments without disruptive reconfigurations. With 6.40 TB of high-performance flash, this drive helps you consolidate data, accelerate workloads, and simplify storage management while preserving predictable latency. The Micron 7300 is engineered for mixed-use environments, providing consistent IOPS, low tail latency, and a robust feature set that keeps data accessible when your most demanding applications demand it.

• Massive capacity and data consolidation. With 6.4 TB of NVMe flash, the Micron 7300 enables you to keep hot data in fast storage, accelerating databases, analytics pipelines, virtualization layers, and large-scale backups. This capacity reduces the need for tiered storage, lowers administrative overhead, and improves data access times across diverse workloads. By storing more relevant data on a single, high-performance drive, you gain faster recovery, shorter reporting windows, and the ability to scale your environment more economically.
• Consistent, low-latency performance for mixed workloads. Designed to deliver steady throughput and strong IOPS across read-heavy and write-intensive tasks, the 7300 maintains predictable service levels during bursts and sustained activity. Whether supporting online transactions, real-time analytics, or a dense virtualized environment, you’ll experience minimal latency variation and fewer performance cliffs as workload profiles shift, helping applications meet Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and keep end users satisfied.
• Seamless integration with existing infrastructure. The 2.5-inch form factor with U.2 interface and PCIe NVMe 3.0 x4 connectivity makes the Micron 7300 a natural upgrade for servers, storage backplanes, and hyper-converged systems. It fits standard drive trays and backplanes, minimizes downtime during replacement, and works with common management tools to monitor health, manage firmware, and orchestrate lifecycle operations across a fleet of drives.
• Enterprise-grade reliability and data protection. Built for 24/7 operation, the Micron 7300 emphasizes reliability, robust ECC, and data integrity features to safeguard critical information under heavy workloads. The drive is designed to withstand power events when supported by backplanes and system firmware, with solid wear leveling and error management that help sustain performance and preserve data integrity across long deployment cycles.
• TAA compliance and ecosystem support. The Micron 7300 is designed for procurement in regulated environments, offering TAA compliance and broad availability through major channel partners. This simplifies purchasing for government or enterprise customers and ensures consistent access to firmware updates, technical resources, and ongoing product support across regions and deployments.
