Key benefits, per Micron

Density: up to 245.76TB per drive and 9.8PB per 2U with the E3.L, up to 5.6x the capacity per rack of high-capacity HDDs
Built on Micron G9 QLC NAND with a six-plane architecture and PCIe Gen5 for high density, faster parallelism, and strong TCO at scale
Up to 1.9x the power efficiency of high-capacity data center HDDs (8.2TB managed per watt), lowering cooling and electricity costs
Vertically integrated Micron design (NAND, DRAM, controller, firmware, validation) for simplified qualification and optimized reliability
Security options including SED (TCG Opal) configurations that Micron lists as FIPS 140-3 Level 2 certifiable, with TAA-compliant sourcing on request

Density and power, in Micron's terms

With capacities up to 245TB per drive, Micron positions the 6600 ION as a new standard for SSD density: petabytes of storage in fewer servers and rack units, up to 5.6x the capacity per rack of high-capacity HDDs, which reduces space, power, and cooling costs.

Built on Micron's ninth-generation (G9) QLC NAND with a six-plane architecture, the 6600 ION delivers, per Micron, up to 1.9x the power efficiency of high-capacity data center HDDs while keeping the reliability of a vertically integrated Micron design: NAND, DRAM, controller, firmware, and validation.

Security and compliance

The 6600 ION is offered in self-encrypting (SED, TCG Opal) configurations that Micron lists as FIPS 140-3 Level 2 certifiable, with CNSA 2.0 and SPDM 1.2 support. Tell us the documentation your program requires for the selected configuration. TAA-compliant sourcing is available on request, subject to product eligibility, availability, and confirmed country of origin.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Micron 6600 ION NVMe SSD?

The Micron 6600 ION is a capacity-focused PCIe Gen5 data center SSD family built on Micron G9 QLC NAND. It ranges from 30.72TB to 245.76TB and is designed for AI, cloud, enterprise, and hyperscale storage where density and power efficiency matter most.

What capacities and form factors are available?

Capacities are 30.72TB, 61.44TB, 122.88TB, and 245.76TB. Form factors include U.2 (15mm), E3.S 1T (7.5mm), and E3.L. For E1.L requirements, contact Edge to confirm current options and availability. The 30.72TB through 122.88TB drives are in full production, per Micron; 245.76TB is offered in U.2 and E3.L form factors, per Micron.

Does the selected configuration meet our FIPS requirement?

Tell us the validation your program requires. We’ll request the available manufacturer documentation for the exact configuration. FIPS-certifiable does not establish that validation has been completed.

Can you help with TAA-compliant sourcing?

TAA-compliant sourcing is available on request, subject to product eligibility, availability, and confirmed country of origin.

How does the 6600 ION compare to hard drives?

Per Micron, against a 44TB capacity-class HDD the 245.76TB E3.L delivers up to 5.6x the capacity per rack and about 1.9x the power efficiency. That means fewer racks, servers, and watts to store the same data, which lowers space, power, and cooling costs.

What is the part number for the 245TB 6600 ION?

An example E3.L configuration is MTFDLBX245T7QHF-1BQ1JABYY for the standard (non-SED) model, or MTFDLBX245T7QHF-1BQ1DFCYY for the SED model. These are examples; confirm the exact manufacturer part number with us before ordering.

Can I buy the Micron 6600 ION from Edge Electronics?

Yes. Edge Electronics is an authorized Micron distributor. Request pricing, availability, and samples through the form on this page, and our technical team can help match the drive and configuration to your workload.
