When Microseconds Matter
Performance-critical cloud and enterprise workloads demand consistently
fast throughput and near real-time access to data. The Micron® 9300
series of NVM Express® (NVMe™) SSDs delivers industry-leading
sequential write performance and the lowest average write latency in the
market to accelerate your growing data center demands.*
Rely on a Trusted, Proven Architecture
Micron has proven the value of flash technologies like 3D TLC NAND and
NVMe in building next-level enterprise and cloud infrastructures. Our
flagship high-performance storage product, the Micron 9200 SSD, was
the industry’s highest 4K random read IOPS SSD and the first to deliver
over 10TB of storage capacity to the marketplace. The Micron 9300 SSDs
leverage this rich history while improving speed and performance and
lowering power (28% versus the 9200 SSD). The familiar architecture of
the 9300 accelerates OEM quals.
Larger and More in Charge
With our highest-capacity enterprise SSDs, the Micron 9300 series
challenges HDDs head-on with drives from 3.2TB to 15.36TB. The 9300
SSDs also offer simplified firmware management, expansion into multiple
namespaces to accommodate multitenancy, and more parallel sessions
for single storage devices. And the Micron 9300 SSDs are our most
power-efficient and cost-efficient enterprise NVMe SSDs to date.

Key Benefits
The affordable way to move to SSDs
330x more random reads, 8x more random writes, 2x more
sequential throughput, and 3x more energy efficient than the
largest 10k hybrid HDDs.2
Quickly Access and Analyze Data Stores
Cull oceans of data for answers while writing up to 4TB per
day for five years.3 Adjust endurance and write performance
with our signature Flex Capacity™ feature.
Unlock the Potential of Huge Data Sets
Capacities starting in terabytes, not gigabytes. QLC
technology allows you to store 33% more bits per cell and get
more fast capacity for less.
Use a Trusted, Proven Architecture
Same controller and core components as our popular Micron
5200 series of SSDs. New QLC NAND. The result? Easy to
qual at comparable value to 10K RPM hard drives.

***Watt (average root mean square) of Micron 9200 SSD compared to the 9300.
Key Benefits
No Read or Write Compromises
Consistently read and write up to 3.5 GB/s of sequential
data.** The Micron 9300 SSDs ingest and read at industryleading speeds, enabling faster data analysis.
Add IOPs to Your Balance Sheet
Maximize your data center investment with improved power
efficiency (more than 28%) and performance.*** The Micron
9300 series saves rack/floor space and lowers license/power
costs by using fewer drives to achieve more.
Performance Pays
Take advantage of solutions optimized for low latency and
performance-critical workloads like caching, database
acceleration, online transaction processing (OLTP), highfrequency trading (HFT), block and object stores, and
training/caching for artificial intelligence (AI), machine
learning (ML) and deep learning (DL).
HDD-Caliber Capacity, NVMe Results
Experience flexible, efficient storage utilization and
multitenacy with up to 15.36TB capacity and 32 NVMe
namespaces.
One Size Fits All
Get more from a single part number with Micron’s Flex
Capacity feature, which lets you adjust SSD capacity,
performance and endurance to meet your needs.
Best-Fit Workloads for the 9300
AI/ML/DL Training and Caching
Accelerate data ingest and trim test and training cycle
times for AI, ML and DL.
OLTP
Increase performance and consistency for better
platform transaction rates.
NoSQL Databases
Build faster, smaller and more economical clusters at
a lower cost.
Large Object
Manage and store more blocks, streams and objects
in less space.
Small Random Block
Find significantly better performance than a hard disk
drive, with fewer nodes.
Big Data
Bring performance to all four corners of your highperformance stacks. Even the top tier of tiered
storage becomes cost-efficient.
