Micron’s 5100 solid state drive (SSD) uses a single-chip controller with a SATA interface
on the system side and four channels of Micron NAND Flash internally. Available in
both M.2 and 2.5-inch form factors, the SSD integrates easily in existing storage infrastructures.
The SSD is designed to use the SATA interface efficiently during both READs and
WRITEs while delivering bandwidth-focused performance. SSD technology enables enhanced boot times, faster application load times, reduced power consumption and extended reliability.
The self-encrypting drive (SED) features a FIPS validated, AES-256 encryption engine,
providing hardware-based, secure data encryption, with no loss of SSD performance.
This SED follows the TCG Enterprise specification for trusted peripherals. When TCG
Enterprise features are not enabled, the device can perform alternate data encryption
by invoking the ATA security command set encryption features, to provide full disk encryption (FDE) managed in the host system BIOS. TCG Enterprise and ATA security feature sets cannot be enabled simultaneously.
The data encryption is always running; however, encryption keys are not managed and
the data is not secure until either TCG Enterprise or ATA security feature sets are enabled.

Measured performance can vary for a number of reasons. The major factors affecting
drive performance are the capacity of the drive and the interface of the host. Additionally, overall system performance can affect the measured drive performance. When
comparing drives, it is recommended that all system variables are the same, and only
the drive being tested varies.
Performance numbers will vary depending on the host system configuration.
The drive is set to report the number of logical block addresses (LBAs) that will ensure
sufficient storage space for the specified capacity. Standard LBA settings, based on the
IDEMA standard (LBA1-03), are shown below.

Micron’s SSDs incorporate advanced technology for defect and error management.
They use various combinations of hardware-based error correction algorithms and
firmware-based static and dynamic wear-leveling algorithms.
Over the life of the SSD, uncorrectable errors may occur. An uncorrectable error is defined as data that is reported as successfully programmed to the SSD but when it is read
out of the SSD, the data differs from what was programmed.

Mean Time to Failure
Mean time to failure (MTTF) for the SSD can be predicted based on the component reliability data using the methods referenced in the Telcordia SR-332 reliability prediction
procedures for electronic equipment.

Endurance for the SSD can be predicted based on the usage conditions applied to the
device, the internal NAND component cycles, the write amplification factor, and the
wear-leveling efficiency of the drive. Total bytes written measured with 55°C case temperature within the total bytes written values listed in this document. The table below
shows the drive lifetime for each SSD capacity based on predefined usage conditions.

Stresses greater than those listed may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a
stress rating only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
reliability.
