The Micron 9100 Max was a solid-state drive in the Add-In Card form factor, launched in July 2017, that is no longer in production. It was available in capacities ranging from 1.2 TB to 2.3 TB. This page reports specifications for the 2.3 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Micron 9100 Max interfaces using a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the NVMEC16 Princeton 89HF16P04CG3 from PMC-Sierra, a DRAM cache chip is available. Micron has installed MLC NAND flash on the 9100 Max, the flash chips are made by Micron. The 9100 Max is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 3,200 MB/s and 2,200 MB/s write; random IO reaches 750K IOPS for read and 300K for writes.
The SSD's price at launch is unknown. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. Micron guarantees an endurance rating of 9600 TBW, a very high value, making this drive a good choice for write-intensive enterprise applications.
