For enterprise market
Micron has unveiled two new enterprise PCI-Express NVMe SSDs based on the latest 16nm MLC NAND, the Micron 9100 and 7100 series SSDs.
Based on different controllers and aimed for a different segments of the enterprise market, both the new 9100 and the new 7100 SSD series from Micron will be based on the new 16nm MLC NAND as well as available in a couple of different form-factors, including HHHL (half-height, half-length) PCIe 3.0 x4, U.2, M.2 and the 2.5-inch U.2.
The Micron 9100 NVMe PCIe SSD series is aimed at high-end enterprise market with high-performance and high-capacity options. Based on either PCIe 3.0 x4 HHHL or U.2 form-factor, the new Micron 9100 series will be available in capacities ranging from 800GB to 3.2TB and use a version of the PMC-Sierra controller seen on Micron's earlier available high-end enterprise SSDs.
Offering sequential transfer speed of up to 3.0GB/s for read and up to 2.0GB/s for write, with random read and write performance of up to 750k and 160k IOPS, the new Micron 9100 series is obviously meant for high-end enterprise market. The active power consumption for the 9100 series ranges from 16W to 27W.
The Micron 7100 NVMe PCIe SSD series is more aimed at mainstream, client and smaller enterprise markets. Based on Marvell's 88SS1093 controller and 16nm MLC NAND, the 7100 series will be available in capacities ranging from 400GB to 960GB for the M.2 form-factor version and 400GB to 1.9TB for the 7.5mm-thick 2.5-inch U.2 form factor.
The Micron 7100 series will offer sequential read performance of up to 2.5GB/s while sequential write performance will range from up to 600MB/s for the M.2 version to 900MB/s for the 2.5-inch form-factor version. The 7100 series random read and write performance is set at up to 235k and 40k IOPS.
Both the new 9100 and the 7100 series should be available soon for enterprise customers. Unfortunately, Micron did not reveal any details regarding the price.
