Crucial MTFDKCC1T6TGQ-1BK1DABYYR 1.6 TB 2.5" U.3 PCIe 4.0 NVMe internal SSD

SKU CH-6PMR-FK7ZY MPN MTFDKCC1T6TGQ-1BK1DABYYR

A 1.6 TB U.3 PCIe 4.0 NVMe internal SSD with DRAM cache and TCG Opal 2.01 encryption for mixed-use workloads

  • Product typeInternal Solid State Drive (SSD)
  • Cache memoryDRAM
  • 6 TB capacity stores large datasets
  • 5 inch U.3 form factor fits enterprise bays
  • PCIe 4.0 NVMe interface delivers high throughput
  • TCG Opal 2.01 encryption protects sensitive data
  • DRAM cache accelerates mixed-use workloads

Capacity and encryption

The Micron 7500 MAX provides 1.6 TB of NVMe storage in a 2.5 inch U.3 form factor. It uses a PCIe 4.0 interface with 256-bit encryption and supports TCG Opal 2.01 for hardware-based data protection. The drive targets mixed-use workloads that require both capacity and security.

Mixed-use endurance profile

The drive handles sustained read and write activity typical of database, virtualisation and analytics tasks. Its DRAM cache helps maintain consistent latency during heavy random I/O. Write endurance will limit service life in write-intensive logging or caching scenarios beyond the rated mixed-use threshold.

U.3 integration requirements

Installation requires a U.3 backplane or adapter that supplies PCIe 4.0 lanes and 2.5 inch drive bay clearance. The 256-bit encryption operates independently of host software, freeing CPU cycles for application work. Systems without U.3 support cannot use this drive.
