Micron 6500 ION 30.72TB U.3 PCIe 4.0 x4 (NVMe) Internal SSD

The Micron MTFDKCC30T7TGR-1BK1DFCYYR is an internal NVMe solid state drive that brings 30.72 TB of high-speed storage to any server or storage array equipped with a U.3 bay.

Through its PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, the drive sustains up to 6,800 MBps during sequential reads and 5,000 MBps during sequential writes. Random activity stays responsive as well, reaching up to 1,000,000 IOPS on reads and 200,000 IOPS on writes. These figures keep virtual machines, real-time analytics, high-traffic databases, and other latency-sensitive workloads moving smoothly.

Micron builds the drive on 232-layer TLC NAND and backs it with an endurance rating of one full drive write per day, making it a dependable option for continuous write-heavy tasks such as content streaming, log capture, or backup consolidation.

Enterprise safeguards come standard. Integrated power loss protection preserves in-flight data if power is interrupted, end-to-end data path protection helps maintain data integrity, and hardware-based security meets TCG Opal 2.01 and FIPS 140-3 Level 2 guidelines for organizations that must encrypt data at rest.

Power requirements remain efficient for a drive of this capacity: about 15 watts during reads, 20 watts during writes, and roughly 5 watts while idle. Combined with a 2.5 million-hour MTBF and a five-year limited warranty, the 6500 ION family offers both reliability and predictable operating costs.

Whether you manage a hyperscale data center, an HPC cluster, or a compact edge appliance that needs plenty of fast local storage, this drive delivers the density and performance needed to maximize every U.3 slot.
