Description
Mixed Use SSD
The Micron MTFDHAL12T8TDR is a 12.8 terabyte (TB) solid-state drive (SSD) that uses the NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) protocol over a PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) interface and TLC (triple-level cell) NAND flash memory technology. NVMe is a high-performance host controller interface and storage protocol that allows for faster data transfer speeds and lower latency compared to traditional AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) protocols.
This drive is likely to be targeted for mixed-use workloads, which means it is designed to handle a variety of different types of workloads, such as read-intensive, write-intensive, and mixed workloads. Mixed-use workloads are characterized by a balance of read and write operations, and a varying level of random and sequential accesses. These types of workloads are common in data centers, enterprise, and cloud environments.
The drive would have some features that help with mixed-use workloads like power loss protection, enhanced endurance, and over-provisioning and wear-leveling.
The exact performance specifications for this model are not published by Micron, but generally speaking, NVMe-based SSDs have faster data transfer speeds, lower latency and higher IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) when compared to traditional SAS/SATA based drives.
High-performance
The Micron MTFDHAL12T8TDR 12.8TB PCIe NVMe Max TLC Solid State Drive is a high-performance storage device that utilizes the NVMe protocol over a PCIe interface and TLC NAND flash memory technology. The exact performance specifications for this model are not published by Micron, but in general NVMe-based SSDs have faster data transfer speeds, lower latency and higher IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second) when compared to traditional SAS/SATA based drives.
Since this drive is designed for mixed-use workloads, it is likely to have a balance of read and write performance. The drive will have higher random read and write IOPS, and it will have higher throughput for small block sizes compared to larger block sizes.
Sequential read and write performance will also likely to be high, the sequential read speeds can reach up to 3.5GB/s, and the sequential write speeds can reach up to 3.0 GB/s. With this kind of high-speed performance, this drive would be suitable for demanding workloads such as data analytics, data-mining, and high-performance computing.
It’s important to keep in mind that these are general numbers and actual performance will depend on the specific usage scenario, software, and hardware environment.
General Compatibility
The Micron MTFDHAL12T8TDR 12.8TB PCIe NVMe Max TLC Solid State Drive is an NVMe-based SSD, so it requires an NVMe-compatible host system to function. In order to use the drive, the system must have a PCIe interface available and the appropriate NVMe drivers must be installed.
In terms of operating systems, NVMe is supported by most modern operating systems including Windows, Linux, and macOS. So, the drive should be compatible with those systems as long as they have NVMe driver support and a PCIe interface.
It’s important to verify the compatibility of the drive with the system’s BIOS or UEFI firmware, as well as checking the operating system’s compatibility with the drive.
It’s also worth noting that the drive requires specific power and thermal requirements to function properly. It is important to ensure that the drive will be used within its environmental specification (operating temperature, voltage, power, etc.) and that the system is equipped with the necessary power cables and connectors.
It’s important to consult the product documentation or contact Micron technical support for further information on compatibility and requirements before installing the drive.
