Micron 5210 ION - SSD - 3.84TB - SATA 6Gb/s

The Micron 5210 ION is the world's first SSD to market with ground-breaking quad-level cell (QLC) technology, delivering fast capacity for less. Optimized for real-time analytics, big data, media streaming, block/object, SQL/NoSQL, and the data lakes that feed AI and machine learning, the Micron 5210 turns analysis into action.

Micron® 5210 ION

The first SSD to challenge hard drives head-on is here. As the world's first SSD built on ground-breaking quad-level cell (QLC) NAND technology, the Micron 5210 ION delivers fast capacity for less. Designed for the workloads of today and tomorrow – real-time analytics, big data, media streaming, block/object, SQL/NoSQL, and the data lakes that feed AI and machine learning – the Micron 5210 SSD accelerates analysis into action. Freed from the confines of hard drive technology, storage architectures can now move to speed and scale, enabling greater infrastructure flexibility and data intelligence. Welcome to the future.

	Endless insight. Deep learning. Speed reading 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 speed reading is key. Machines can only learn as fast as they can read and analyze data.
	Huge data sets. Massive opportunity. Micron 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.3 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.4 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

The Micron 5210 was the world's first QLC SSD to be shipped and sold (21 May 2018).
