- Will this fit a normal desktop M.2 slot?
- No. It is a 2.5-inch U.3 drive with a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface. You need a U.3 backplane or a U.2/U.3 adapter and a free PCIe slot or host bus adapter.
- How much data can be written over its life?
- Micron rates it at 1 drive write per day for five years, which works out to roughly 28 PB written for the 15.36TB model.
- Is it faster than a consumer NVMe drive?
- Sequential reads are in the same range as high-end consumer PCIe 4.0 drives. The advantage is steady performance under mixed server workloads, power-loss protection and far higher endurance.
- Does it come with a heatsink?
- No. It is a bare 2.5-inch drive and relies on the server or enclosure airflow for cooling.
- Is it good for a home NAS?
- It works if your NAS has U.2/U.3 bays or adapters. For a typical home setup a SATA or M.2 drive is simpler and cheaper per terabyte.
