The product intended for AI workloads and HPC applications is not only nimble, but its consumption figures are also pleasant.
Micron started the 6550 ION testing its company-class SSDs communicating with the x4 PCI Express 5.0 interface among some of its partners.

The solution with storage sizes of 30.72 and 61.44 TB, equipped with DRAM cache, comes in U.2, E1.L, and E3.S-1T formats, and uses the manufacturer’s G8 TLC NAND flash chips.

The construction, which typically consumes 20 watts or less, has a peak consumption of 25 watts and can dictate a maximum speed of 12,000/5,000 MB/s in sequential read/write. With a queue depth of 1, typically 70 μs latency, the development can produce 1,600,000 (QD512)/70,000 (QD128) IOPS in random disk operations, and is friendly with ASPM (Active State Power Management) thanks to OCP 2.5 support. thanks to which the energy efficiency can improve by up to 20 percent when idling.

The storage, which offers SPDM 1.2 specifications and SHA-512 hashing algorithm, comes with a 5-year warranty – but the pricing is still unknown – enjoys FIPS 140-3 L2 validation and has been certified for 2.5 million MTTF hours.
