Micron 9550 PRO 7.68TB U.2 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD

The Micron 9550 PRO is a PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe SSD built on Micron 232-layer TLC NAND with a Micron-designed controller. The 7.68 TB U.2 15 mm version (MTFDLAL7T6THA-1BK1DABYY) is rated at 14,000 MB/s sequential read and 3,300K random read IOPS, with the 9550 series specified up to 10,000 MB/s sequential write and 400K random write IOPS. Endurance is 1 DWPD over a five-year warranty, and the drive supports NVMe 2.0, the OCP Datacenter NVMe SSD 2.0 feature set and TCG Opal 2.0. A 9550 MAX sibling is rated at 3 DWPD.

The 9550 PRO targets AI training and inference clusters, where GPU servers need fast local storage for checkpoints and data loading, as well as HPC scratch and high-throughput databases. Enterprises buying GPU servers from Supermicro, Dell and HPE specify it in the Gen5 NVMe bays of those systems; Micron ships it in U.2, E3.S and E1.S so one family covers different chassis. Buyers should confirm that the host backplane and PCIe switch support Gen5 at x4 per bay, since many 2023-era chassis wire NVMe bays at Gen4. Because random-write performance scales with capacity, confirm the figure for the exact capacity when sizing write-heavy workloads.

High-performance NVMe for GPU and HPC servers is supplied by InTechnologies FZCO through licensed partners who hold the contract and issue the invoice. InTechnologies handles sourcing from Micron authorised distribution and verified channel stock, consolidation at Dubai Airport Freezone and DDP or DDU delivery, including end-user documentation where destination rules require it.
