Questions buyers ask about this part
- Will the 30.72TB 6500 ION fit my server?
- This is a 2.5" U.3 SFF part on PCI Express NVMe 4.0 x4. It fits any bay wired for PCI Express NVMe 4.0 x4. Send us your server model and we will confirm backplane support, firmware level and any bracket or caddy required before you order — that check is part of every order we ship.
- How fast is the 30.72TB 6500 ION?
- Up to 6,800 MB/s sequential read and up to 4,200 MB/s sequential write, which is what PCI Express NVMe 4.0 x4 allows. Sustained figures under a real mixed workload land lower than the sequential headline — tell us your access pattern and queue depth and we will tell you what to expect rather than quoting the datasheet at you.
- Is this Micron part genuine, and is the warranty intact?
- Yes. We supply through authorized distribution only, so the part carries the full Micron manufacturer warranty and its firmware update path stays supported. No grey-market stock, no re-labelled drives, no voided warranties.
- Do you offer volume pricing and accept purchase orders?
- The listed price is per unit and indicative; tiered pricing applies at quantity. We accept purchase orders from qualified businesses, government and defence agencies, and educational institutions, with net terms and consolidated invoicing available.
