Micron 5210 ION. SSD capacity: 960 GB, SSD form factor: 2.5", Read speed: 540 MB/s, Write speed: 130 MB/s, Data transfer rate: 6 Gbit/s, Component for: PC/Laptop

Introducing the world’s first QLC SSD and the HDD replacement of choice
The first SSD to challenge hard drives is here. The Micron® 5210 ION is the world’s first SSD to market with ground-breaking quad-level cell (QLC) NAND technology, delivering fast capacity for less.

Designed for the top workloads of today and tomorrow, the Micron 5210 SSD accelerates analysis into action. It’s ideal for handling the demands of SQL and NoSQL databases, real-time analytics and big data, block and object stores, media streaming, and the data lakes that feed artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning.

Intelligence accelerated

Before the age of AI, data center read-to-write ratios1 were typically 4:1. Now it’s more like 5,000:1 and solutions to problems are increasingly found in the patterns data makes. Whether you’re querying a 10TB SQL database, streaming content and adjusting to traffic, or analyzing daily transactions to tune your business model, real-time data utilization is key. Machines can only learn as fast as they can read, ingest, and analyze data.
Huge data sets. Massive opportunity. Micron QLC SSDs.

Huge data sets. Massive opportunity. With QLC SSDs

Capacities on the Micron 5210 SSD start in terabytes, not gigabytes. That’s intentional. QLC technology allows you to store 33% more bits per cell. Cull oceans of data for answers with the affordable power of the Micron 5210 SSD – all while writing lots of data.2 You can also adjust the drive’s endurance and write performance with our innovative Flex Capacity feature to meet the needs of ever-evolving workloads.

Spin struggles. You don’t have to

Compared to the largest 10K RPM HDDs available, the Micron® 5210 ION delivers 175x faster random reads, 30x faster random writes, and 2x faster throughput. It’s also 3x more energy efficient, fueling a lower terabyte-to-terabyte total cost of ownership. Compared to 3.5-inch 7200 RPM HDDs, you can pack twice as many 2.5-inch Micron 5210 SSDs into a typical 2U rack to save on power, cooling, licenses, and floor space. How much are your racks costing you?

Micron quality: from silicon to system

Better SSDs come from better NAND. Period. From silicon to system, we create the memory and flash storage that powers the data center and makes your workloads faster, more reliable, more efficient, and more cost-effective. With the world’s first QLC SSD and the industry’s broadest SATA SSD portfolio, Micron drives are available in all major options and configurations to meet your storage needs.
