Micron 6550 ION NVMe SSD

Industry-leading 60TB1 storage performance and efficiency for data center workloads.2 World’s first PCIe® Gen5 60TB data center SSD.

The world’s fastest and most energy-efficient 60TB SSD

The Micron 6550 ION SSD is the world’s first 60TB PCIe Gen5 data center SSD, built to deliver unparalleled performance, energy efficiency and density. It’s ideal for meeting the increasing demands of AI workloads in AI data lakes, high-performance computing (HPC), big data and analytics environments. 

With capacity up to 61.44TB, the 6550 ION SSD provides the high capacity needed for growing AI workloads while delivering best-in-class performance and up to 20% lower SSD power consumption than competitive SSDs.1,2,3 Its best-in-class power efficiency for AI workloads helps enable increased data center savings and sustainability.4

As the first 60TB SSD in an E3.S form factor, the 6550 ION SSD provides industry-leading storage density and helps customers reduce their data center footprint up to 67%. 

The 6550 ION SSD is also equipped with OCP 2.5 intelligent management capabilities, helping bring cloud-scale capabilities to enterprise data centers.5 Designed for end-to-end security, it safeguards data with features like SED, SPDM 1.2 and secure encrypted environment (SEE).

Benefits

Best-in-class PCIe Gen5 performance1,2

The Micron 6550 ION SSD delivers the industry-leading, high-capacity SSD performance needed for AI workloads. With 12.0 GB/s sequential reads and 5.0 GB/s sequential writes at only 20 watts, it provides up to 179% better performance than competitors’ products, with up to a 20% power savings. With its exceptional write performance, it can write 61.44TB in 3.4 hours, which is up to 150% faster than the competition.7

Best-in-class energy efficiency1,2

Energy use is a primary concern for data center operators, and the Micron 6550 ION SSD helps reduce energy costs by lowering SSD power consumption up to 20%. The 6550 ION delivers up to 179% higher sequential read bandwidth per watt and up to 213% higher sequential write bandwidth per watt. These improvements allow more power to be allocated to critical components like GPUs and CPUs to fuel the needs of AI.

Best-in-class E3.S density

The world’s first 60TB E3.S SSD, the Micron 6550 ION SSD offers industry-leading space efficiency, enabling over 1.2 petabytes of storage per 1U system. E3.S-capable servers can be configured with up to 20 SSDs in 1U, while many U.2-capable servers are often configured with 24 SSD slots in 2U. Comparing these two configurations, the Micron 6550 ION E3.S form factor provides a 67% increase in density.

Data center storage insights

The Micron data center storage insights center provides technology and workload insights on data center storage — direct from our technical experts.

1. The Micron 6550 ION offers a capacity of up to 61.44TB. Comparisons are made with other 61.44TB NVMe SSDs from Samsung, Solidigm and Western Digital. 

2. These comparisons use publicly available competitor information from published sources at the time of the 6550 ION launch, with the 6550 ION and Western Digital drive using a maximum power of 20W and Samsung and Solidigm drives using 25W, resulting in up to 20% less maximum power consumption for the 6550 ION.

3. The Micron 6550 ION 61.44TB SSD at 20W provides better performance/watt than competing 61.44TB SSDs at 20W and 25W, resulting in up to 20% power savings. Performance per watt claims are based on publicly available competitor information per footnote 1.

4. Tests conducted by Micron engineering using a maximum power limit of 20W for the Micron 6550 ION and the Solidigm D5-P5336 using 25W maximum for all tests in this section.

5. The Micron 6550 ION SSD complies with most, but not all, requirements of the Open Compute Project (OCP) Datacenter NVMe SSD Specification 2.5. For more information, see the OCP 2.5 public specification.

6. No hardware, software or system can provide absolute security under all conditions. Micron assumes no liability for lost, stolen or corrupted data arising from the use of any Micron products, including those products that incorporate any of the mentioned security features.

7. Fill time calculation = 100% 128KB sequential writes per specification performance vs. competitive drives, per footnotes 1 and 2, until the drive’s usable capacity is full.
