MICRON M550 SATA SSD ® SATA Performance and Power for Personal Computing Our M550 SATA solid state drive (SSD) provides exceptional performance and extremely low power consumption for personal computing devices. The M550 is built using Micron’s 20nm NAND Flash and offers the same features as our popular M500 SSD— including RAIN reliability technology, device sleep (DEVSLP) mode, Opal 2.0 self-encryption, asynchronous power-loss protection, and adaptive thermal monitoring—but with superior performance (up to 550 MB/s, nearly saturating the SATA 6 Gb/s bus) and greater power savings thanks to reduced power consumption during device sleep. The M550 SSD is built and tested in-house, from start to finish, so you get a higher level of reliability that only comes from a trusted NAND manufacturer. M.2 mSATA 2.5” KEY BENEFITS High Performance Deliver super-fast reads and writes and enable almost instant boot-up and wake from sleep. Low Power Consumption Consume less power with features like device sleep mode, which extends battery life. Versatility Designed with industry-standard capacities and ultra-compact form factors. Data Security Build industry-leading encryption, enhanced data protection, adaptive thermal monitoring, and more into your designs. WHICH APPLICATIONS ARE THE BEST FIT?

Form Factor Flexibility for Small Designs: The M550 is offered in three thin, ultra-compact form factors—the 2.5-inch, mSATA, and M.2. 3 2.5 Watts 2 1.5 1 0.5 0 STANDARD HARD DRIVE M550 Dramatic Power Savings: During typical operations, the M550 can use as little as 6% of the power consumed by a standard hard drive.* Power calculations are based on published specs for the 500GB Seagate® Momentus® 7200 rpm internal laptop hard drive, one of the most popular hard drives according to NPD data published in September 2013. The Momentus uses 2.5 watts of power on an average workload compared to 0.15 watts on the Micron M550. In everyday terms, this means significantly more battery life and substantial savings on power costs.
