SSD Micron 7450 PRO 480GB M.2 (22x80) NVMe PCI 4.0 MTFDKBA480TFR-1BC1ZABYYR (DWPD 1)

Micron 7450 PRO 480GB is an enterprise NVMe SSD in M.2 2280 format, primarily designed for servers and data center environments with read-intensive workloads. You get a capacity of 480GB, an interface of PCIe Gen4 x4, NVMe 1.4, and sequential read speeds of up to 5000 MB/s, which is well above typical consumer drives. The model is designed with 1 DWPD endurance and 800 TB TBW, so it can withstand heavy daily IO operations. Add in enterprise features like power-loss protection and strict latency control, and you have an SSD that is built for 24/7 production, not just for a home PC.

What you get

This 7450 PRO uses Micron G7 3D TLC NAND memory and is optimized for read-intensive workloads in server environments – databases, virtualization, analytics, web/app servers. With 4KB random operations, you get up to 280000 IOPS read and 40000 IOPS write, plus 50000 IOPS under 70/30 mixed read/write workloads, which is exactly the scenario for many real production systems. It is designed for QoS latency ≤2 ms at 99.9999% of small 4KB mixed IO, with typical latency of 80 µs read and 30 µs write for this model – important if you are chasing predictable behavior, not just “peak” speeds. Reliability is ensured with data path protection from PHY to NAND, power-loss protection (PLP), and an error rate of UBER < 1 sector per 10^17 bits read, which is a standard for serious enterprise environments. The endurance of 800 TBW at 4KB random and a theoretical maximum of 3550 TBW at 128KB sequential shows that the drive is rated for years of operation in a read-heavy server.

• Capacity of 480GB, suitable for OS + critical services, cache layers, or separate databases in a server scenario.
• Interface PCIe Gen4 x4, NVMe 1.4 in M.2 2280 form factor with M-key connector, allowing high density in compact server and edge systems.
• Up to 5000 MB/s speed for reading and 280000 IOPS 4KB random read for fast servicing of multiple small requests simultaneously.
• Designed QoS latency ≤2 ms (99.9999%) and typical latency 80 µs read / 30 µs write, to maintain stable response times under heavy load.
• Power-loss protection (PLP), data path protection, and UBER < 1 per 10^17 bits for minimal risk of data loss or corruption during 24/7 operation.
• Endurance of 1 DWPD and 800 TB TBW (read-intensive, enterprise data center SSD), optimized for predominantly reading workloads.
• Operating temperature from 0°C to 70°C, weight under 11 g, and height up to 3.9 mm, facilitating integration into tightly packed server chassis.
• Active consumption of up to around 7 W during read and 4.5 W during write, with 2.9 W idle, balancing performance and power in a data center context.
• Support for up to 128 NVMe namespaces and sector sizes 512 / 4096 bytes, convenient for multi-tenant and specific storage configurations.

Who it is suitable for

This SSD is aimed at server and enterprise environments where you need predictable latency, data protection, and stability under constant load – virtual machines, databases, web/API backends, telemetry, and logging systems. It makes more sense in read-intensive roles than as a “scratch” disk for heavy writes; if you have a write-heavy workload, you should look for a higher DWPD level.

The combination of PCIe 4.0 performance, strict QoS design, and enterprise protections like PLP and full data path protection makes the Micron 7450 PRO 480GB a very solid foundation for reliable and fast server storage.
