Solid State Drive MICRON 5400 MAX 960 GB SATA 6Gb/s Mixed Use

MICRON 5400 MAX 960 GB SATA 6Gb/s Mixed Use is a high-capacity solid state drive engineered for mixed workload and read-intensive storage environments. The drive uses a SATA 6Gb/s interface and enterprise-grade flash management to deliver consistent performance and predictable latency for servers, storage arrays and edge devices. With 960 GB of usable capacity, this SSD is intended to provide sustained throughput and endurance for database acceleration, virtualisation, caching and general-purpose storage where continuous operation and data integrity are important.

Advantages

The drive combines enterprise reliability features with mixed‑use endurance characteristics to balance performance and longevity. SATA 6Gb/s compatibility allows straightforward integration into existing server and storage platforms. Advanced flash management and error correction support stable sustained write performance and data retention while reducing the need for frequent maintenance. The large 960 GB capacity enables consolidation of active datasets and improves efficiency for caching and tiered storage configurations.

Suitable for

• Database acceleration and transactional workloads
• Virtualisation and virtual machine boot/storage volumes
• Caching layers and tiered storage in hybrid systems
• Edge computing and branch office servers
• General-purpose enterprise storage requiring sustained performance

Key specifications

• Form factor: 2.5-inch SATA SSD
• Interface: SATA 6Gb/s (SATA III)
• Capacity: 960 GB usable storage
• Workload profile: mixed use with emphasis on read-intense operations
• Endurance and reliability: enterprise-class flash management and error correction for sustained operation
• Compatibility: designed for server, storage array and edge device integration

How to use

Install the 2.5-inch SATA drive into a compatible server, storage chassis or edge device following the platform manufacturer's installation instructions. Configure the drive within the operating system or storage controller, format as required and integrate into arrays, caching layers or virtual machine storage pools. Monitor drive health and available capacity using system management tools and follow standard data protection practices such as regular backups and RAID or replication for redundancy.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, deploy the drive in workloads that match mixed‑use and read‑intensive profiles; avoid write-heavy random workloads beyond the drive's endurance class. Use firmware updates provided by the platform vendor and include the drive in routine monitoring to maintain performance and reliability.
