Micron 9400 MAX 12.8TB NVMe AIC SSD

The Micron 9400 MAX 12.8TB NVMe AIC SSD is a high-capacity, high-endurance enterprise solid-state drive built on Micron's 176-layer TLC 3D NAND and paired with the NVMe 1.4 protocol over a PCIe 4.0 x4 Add-In Card form factor. Designed to deliver industry-leading sequential read throughput of up to 7,000 MB/s and sequential write throughput of up to 7,000 MB/s, the 9400 MAX is engineered for workloads that demand sustained, consistent I/O performance at massive capacity points. The MAX endurance tier provides a significantly elevated drive writes per day (DWPD) rating, making it well-suited for write-intensive enterprise applications where data integrity and long-term reliability are non-negotiable.

At 12.8TB of usable capacity in an AIC (Add-In Card) form factor, the Micron 9400 MAX eliminates the U.2 or E1.S cabling constraints of traditional drive bays and connects directly to the host PCIe slot, reducing latency and simplifying high-density server configurations. The drive delivers up to 1,500,000 random read IOPS and up to 400,000 random write IOPS, enabling it to handle the concurrent, low-latency demands of modern AI inference pipelines, real-time analytics engines, and large-scale transactional databases. Power loss protection circuitry and end-to-end data path protection further reinforce data integrity under unexpected system events.

The Micron 9400 MAX carries the manufacturer part number MTFDKBDG12T8TGH and is positioned within Micron's flagship 9400 series, which targets hyperscale datacenters, cloud service providers, and enterprise IT environments operating in demanding regions including the UAE, GCC, EMEA, and APAC. The drive supports NVMe Management Interface (NVMe-MI) for out-of-band management, enabling IT administrators to monitor health, telemetry, and firmware state without interrupting production workloads. Its combination of raw capacity, throughput, IOPS density, and robust enterprise firmware makes the 9400 MAX a compelling storage foundation for next-generation AI and data-intensive infrastructure.

Ideal for

• AI and machine learning training data repositories requiring sustained high-throughput sequential reads to feed GPU clusters without storage bottlenecks
• High-frequency transactional databases such as OLTP systems where write-intensive workloads demand high endurance and consistent low-latency random I/O
• Real-time analytics and in-memory computing acceleration where large hot datasets must be served at NVMe speeds to reduce query response times
• Hyperscale and cloud datacenter storage tiers requiring maximum capacity per PCIe slot to reduce physical footprint and power consumption per usable terabyte
• Content delivery and media processing infrastructures handling large-block, high-throughput video encoding and streaming workloads at enterprise scale
• Enterprise virtualization platforms running high-density VM or container workloads that generate mixed random and sequential I/O profiles requiring both capacity and endurance
