Micron 5400 PRO 7.68TB 2.5" 540MB/s SATA 6Gb/s Internal SSD

Overview

The Micron MTFDDAK7T6TGA-1BC16ABYYR is a 7.68 TB internal solid-state drive designed for 2.5-inch drive bays, connecting through a SATA 6 Gb/s interface. It delivers read speeds up to 540 MB/s and write speeds up to 520 MB/s, making it suitable for handling large data workloads efficiently. Built with 176-layer 3D TLC NAND technology, this SSD balances high capacity with durability and consistent performance.

Its high input/output operations per second (IOPS) rates—93,000 for random 4KB reads and 10,500 for writes—support fast data access in demanding environments. The drive’s endurance rating of 0.6 drive writes per day ensures it can sustain steady workloads over time, making it a reliable choice for business, data center, and professional workstation applications.

Key features
