1.92 TB SATA SSD

The Micron 5300 MAX is a 2.5 inch internal solid state drive offering 1.92 TB of storage. It connects through a standard SATA 6Gbps interface and uses triple-level-cell NAND. The drive suits mainstream workloads that need consistent throughput rather than peak burst speed.

Capacity and headroom

Sequential reads reach up to 540 MBps and writes up to 520 MBps. Random 4 KB performance delivers up to 95000 IOPS for reads and 70000 IOPS for writes. This headroom handles operating systems, databases and virtual machines comfortably, while sustained heavy write loads will eventually saturate the SATA link.

SATA interface limits

The SATA 6Gbps interface caps practical throughput near the quoted 540 MBps read and 520 MBps write figures. Latency is higher than PCIe-based alternatives, and the bus cannot scale beyond its 6 Gbps signalling rate. A mean time between failures rating of 3000000 hours supports long-term deployment in always-on environments.

Questions about this item

Will this 5300 MAX 2.5" SATA SSD work in a laptop that only has the older 3Gbps SATA port?

Yes, the SATA 6Gbps interface is backwards compatible with 3Gbps ports, though sequential speeds will be limited to the port's maximum.

How can I verify the 5300 MAX is delivering its rated 540 MBps read and 520 MBps write performance after installation?

Run a benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark using a 1GiB test file; results should approach the rated sequential figures on a 6Gbps link.

Does the 1.92TB 5300 MAX package include a 2.5" to 3.5" mounting bracket or a SATA data cable?

The drive ships as a bare 2.5" unit; mounting brackets and SATA cables are sold separately.
