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.

1. Unformatted. 1GB = 1 billion bytes. Formatted capacity is less.
2. Data taken at 25°C using a SATA 6 Gb/s interface. Device-initiated power
management (DIPM) enabled.
3. Active power measured while running MobileMark® Productivity Suite.
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.

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.
