Micron 7600 TAA Compliance: A Buyer's Guide
Micron 7600 configuration and sourcing questions for aerospace and defense projects, including TAA requirements and available documentation.
On this page
For a defense program considering the Micron 7600, two questions matter: Which configurations meet the TAA requirement? Who can supply the drive with the documentation the contract requires?
Edge Electronics is an authorized Micron distributor. This guide outlines the configuration and sourcing questions to discuss when considering the 7600 for your project.
Is the Micron 7600 TAA Compliant?
TAA compliance on the 7600 is not an automatic property of the family. Confirm the complete configuration and the country-of-origin evidence for the supply being quoted.
What Is TAA Compliance, and Why Does It Matter for the 7600?
TAA compliance means a product was produced or “substantially transformed” in the United States or a TAA-designated country, as defined by the Trade Agreements Act of 1979.
Two major IT manufacturing countries (China and India) are not TAA-designated, which is what makes TAA-compliant storage a real sourcing challenge. TAA compliance matters for aerospace and defense buyers in three practical places:
- GSA Schedule purchases. Products sold on GSA Schedules must be TAA-compliant.
- FAR and DFARS flow-downs. Prime contracts routinely flow TAA requirements down to subs and component suppliers.
- DoD programs. Many defense programs require TAA-compliant storage at the component level, not just the system level.
Which Micron 7600 Configuration Fits Your Project?
The 7600 family ships in two endurance classes, three form factors, and a range of capacities. Choose a configuration for your application and tell us any sourcing requirements.
| Attribute | Options |
|---|---|
| Endurance Class | 7600 PRO (read-intensive) and 7600 MAX (mixed-use) |
| Form Factors | U.2 (15mm), E1.S (9.5mm and 15mm), E3.S 1T (7.5mm) |
| Capacities | Up to 15.36 TB (varies by endurance class and form factor) |
| Interface | PCIe Gen5 x4, NVMe |
| NAND | Micron G9 TLC |
| Security Options | SED and SPDM 1.2; request the exact configuration’s FIPS status and documentation |
The 7600 PRO is tuned for read-intensive workloads like AI inference, analytics, and content delivery. The 7600 MAX handles mixed-use workloads where sustained write performance matters, like virtualization, databases, and transactional systems.
TAA sourcing eligibility and FIPS validation address different requirements. Review the evidence for each requirement on the selected configuration.
Tell us the security, country-of-origin, and documentation requirements for your program. We can request the available manufacturer evidence for the exact configuration. FIPS-certifiable does not establish completed FIPS validation.
Discuss Your TAA Requirements
If your project has TAA requirements, let us know when you request a quote. We’ll review the available options.
What Documentation Does Your Project Need?
Include any required country-of-origin evidence or other documentation in your inquiry.
When a program needs supporting documentation beyond that, Micron publishes compliance documents that Edge can request on your behalf, as available:
- Statement of Volatility (SoV) cataloging volatile and non-volatile memory elements and their sanitization paths
- RoHS and REACH declarations for environmental and substance compliance
- CMRT (Conflict Minerals Reporting Template) where required
Tell us what your program requires when you request your quote. If a program needs a document Micron has not yet published for a specific 7600 SKU, our team can submit the request to Micron’s quality team.

How Do I Request a Quote for a Micron 7600?
Include endurance class (PRO or MAX), form factor (U.2, E1.S, E3.S), capacity, and any security requirements (FIPS 140-3 Level 2, SED). If you have a program-specific SKU or supplier list, send that too.
Send us the complete manufacturer part number and any required documentation so we can review your request.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is every Micron 7600 TAA compliant?
TAA eligibility must be confirmed for the quoted supply using country-of-origin evidence and the requirements of the applicable procurement. A shipping address alone does not establish eligibility.
Can the Micron 7600 be both TAA-compliant and FIPS 140-3 Level 2?
Confirm the exact configuration and available documentation for both requirements. A manufacturer’s FIPS-certifiable designation does not establish completed validation.
What is the difference between the 7600 PRO and the 7600 MAX?
The 7600 PRO is optimized for read-intensive workloads like AI inference and analytics. The 7600 MAX has higher endurance for mixed-use workloads like databases and virtualization.
Can Edge handle DPAS-rated orders for the Micron 7600?
Yes. We receive and process DPAS-rated orders in accordance with the applicable rating and requirements. Tell us the rating at the start.
Does Edge support ITAR-regulated programs?
Edge Electronics, Inc. maintains a current manufacturer and exporter registration with the U.S. Department of State’s Directorate of Defense Trade Controls under ITAR. Product jurisdiction, licensing, eligibility, and technical-data handling remain transaction-specific. Put your program’s flow-down requirements on the RFQ and we confirm what applies to the quoted item in writing.
