Press Release
Micron announced the Micron 4600 PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSD, an innovative client storage drive for OEMs that is designed to deliver exceptional performance and user experience for gamers, creators and professionals. Leveraging Micron G9 TLC NAND, the 4600 SSD is Micron’s first Gen5 client SSD and doubles the performance of its predecessor.
The Micron 4600 SSD showcases sequential read speeds of 14.5 GB/s and write speeds of 12.0 GB/s. These capabilities allow users to load a large language model (LLM) from the SSD to DRAM in less than one second, enhancing the user experience with AI PCs. For AI model loading times, the 4600 SSD reduces load times by up to 62% compared to Gen4 performance SSDs3 ensuring rapid deployment of LLMs and other AI workloads. Additionally, the 4600 SSD provides up to 107% improved energy efficiency (MB/s per watt) compared to Gen4 performance SSDs, enhancing battery life and overall system efficiency. The Micron 4600 SSD is the second Micron client SSD to incorporate the most advanced Micron G9 NAND technology, following the Micron 2650 NVMe SSD already in production.
Micron 4600 NVMe SSD Key Features
Peak PCIe Gen5 Performance – Delivers up to 107% faster sequential reads and 83% faster writes than Gen4 SSDs, improving system responsiveness and productivity.Enhanced User Experience – Excels in gaming, scientific research, and content creation, outperforming Gen5 competitors by up to 11% and Gen4 SSDs by 38% in PCMark 10 benchmarks.
Optimized for AI PCs – Loads AI models up to 62% faster than Gen4 SSDs, enabling large language model (LLM) loading in under a second, significantly enhancing AI-driven workflows.
