SKU CH-65WJ-59RMD MPN MTFDKCB7T6TFR1BC1ZABYYR

A 7.68 TB enterprise NVMe SSD with 176-layer NAND in a 2.5 inch U.3 form factor

  • Enterprise-grade storage with 7.68 TB capacity
  • 176-layer NAND technology accelerates data center workloads
  • PCIe Gen4 interface delivers up to 1 million IOPS
  • 5 inch U.3 form factor fits mainstream server deployments
  • Secure Execution Environment protects sensitive data

7.68 TB enterprise NVMe SSD

The Micron 7450 PRO provides 7.68 TB of storage in a 2.5 inch U.3 form factor. It targets data centres, hyperscale clouds and OEM platforms that need high-capacity flash for boot, caching or primary data workloads. The drive uses 176-layer NAND with CMOS-under-array technology to deliver consistent performance across mixed enterprise workloads.

Capacity and headroom

At 7.68 TB the drive accommodates large databases, virtualisation images and warm-tier analytics without frequent expansion. PCIe Gen4 bandwidth and up to one million IOPS handle heavy read-heavy traffic, while write-intensive tasks will eventually reach the endurance limits inherent to mainstream TLC NAND. The Secure Execution Environment adds a hardware root of trust for sensitive deployments.

Build and connectivity

The 2.5 inch U.3 connector fits standard hot-swap backplanes and enables tool-less replacement in rackmount servers. Power-loss protection circuitry safeguards in-flight data during unexpected outages. A 176-layer NAND stack keeps the physical height within the 22 x 80 mm M.2 envelope for alternative mounting options where U.3 bays are unavailable.

Questions about this item

Will the 7.68TB Crucial 7450 PRO U.3 drive work in a server that only has 2.5-inch U.2 bays?

The U.3 interface is backward compatible with U.2 backplanes, so the 2.5-inch form factor will fit and operate in existing U.2 slots.

How can I verify the 176-layer NAND and PCIe Gen4 NVMe link are running at full speed after installation?

Check the negotiated link width and speed in the OS NVMe management tool or BIOS; it should report PCIe Gen4 x4 and the drive should identify as Micron 7450 PRO with 7.68TB capacity.

Does the MTFDKCB7T6TFR1BC1ZABYYR ship with a heatsink, mounting screws or a U.3-to-U.2 adapter cable?

The drive is supplied as the bare 2.5-inch U.3 SSD only; any heatsink, screws or adapter cables must be sourced separately.
