The Micron 9300 Pro is a solid-state drive in the U.2 form factor, launched on April 23rd, 2019. It is available in capacities ranging from 3.8 TB to 15 TB. This page reports specifications for the 7.5 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Micron 9300 Pro interfaces using a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the PM8607 NVMe2016 Belmar from Microchip Flashtech Microsemi, a DRAM cache chip is available. Micron has installed 64-layer TLC NAND flash on the 9300 Pro, the flash chips are made by Micron. To improve write speeds, a cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are soaked up more quickly. The 9300 Pro is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 3,500 MB/s and 3,500 MB/s write; random IOPS reach up to 850K for reads and 145K for writes.
At its launch, the SSD was priced at 1475 USD. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. Micron guarantees an endurance rating of 16800 TBW, a high value.
