Moving Data Faster Than Ever Before
Enterprise Advantages
Our RealSSD™ P300 drives leverage the SATA 6 Gb/s interface to provide stellar performance and low latency for enterprise servers, system storage, and blade servers. Built with our high-endurance SLC NAND and optimized NAND management algorithms, the P300 drives achieve sequential read speeds of up to 360 MB/s and up to 45K random write IOPs—the highest of any SATA-based SSD on the market.

A Convincing Look at P300 SSD Advantages
A side-by-side comparison of similar systems—one using our P300 solid state drive versus another using 12 SAS hard drives—proved to be an ideal platform for showcasing the advantages of our enterprise P300 SSDs.
Key Features
Industry-Leading Performance
Our P300 drives provide fast data access with write throughput that is up to 15 times higher than a leading competitor’s SSD.1 Our optimized firmware and hardware also deliver the best write-cache-disabled performance in the industry, which is critical for data integrity. Best of all, our P300 drives deliver the same high read and write performance regardless of drive density—50GB, 100GB, or 200GB.
Workhorse Durability
Our P300 drives are designed to handle the intense demands of enterprise applications like blade servers. We stringently test our SLC NAND components and assembled SSDs to ensure they meet strict endurance standards and can confidently say that our 200GB P300 will write 3.5 petabytes of data during its lifetime at typical usage conditions—the equivalent of writing about 2TB of data (10 times the total capacity) every day for five years. 2
Lower Power Consumption
Not only do our P300 drives consume a fraction of the power of a typical enterprise-class hard drive, but they also generate less heat, requiring almost zero cooling. Even better, a single P300 drive has the performance to do the work of multiple hard drives3—providing even greater efficiency for your power and equipment budgets.
Why choose the P300 SSD?
- Performance: Improves system response time for low-latency workloads. Delivers up to 15X better write IOP performance than a leading competitor’s SSD. 1
- Durability: Uses enterprise-grade SLC NAND and optimized firmware to achieve impressive endurance.
- Compatibility: Complies with SATA 6 Gb/s, making it an easy-to-adopt, drop-in HDD replacement, which increases design flexibility and speeds time-to-market.
- Low power: Consumes significantly less power than a typical enterprise HDD and requires almost zero cooling.
- NAND expertise: Leverages Micron’s proven quality and test capabilities to provide best-in-class drive reliability
Ideal for use in applications that require:
- High IOPs performance
- Data integrity
- High endurance
- Durability in harsh environments
Typical applications:
- Enterprise storage

- Blade servers
- Industrial applications
- Competitive comparison figures are based on independent benchmarks performed by Calypso Systems, Inc.
- Micron products are warranted only to meet production data sheet specifications. See data sheet for details.
- Micron internal testing shows that the P300 drive sustained random write IOPs of 16k exceeds the sustained random write IOPs of a RAID 0 of twelve 15K rpm 2.5-inch enterprise SAS drives, which achieved 5.3k IOPs. Testing was performed comparing a single 100GB P300 drive against 12 SAS drives in a standard 12-bay Intel® server storage appliance.
