Micron MTFDDAK960TDS 960GB 5300 PRO 2.5-Inch SATA III Enterprise SSD
The Micron MTFDDAK960TDS is a 960GB Micron 5300 PRO enterprise SATA SSD designed for dependable storage in servers, data centers, workstations, and enterprise computing environments. It features a 2.5-inch form factor, SATA III 6Gb/s interface, and 3D TLC NAND flash, delivering sequential read speeds of up to 540 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 520 MB/s.
The drive combines enterprise-oriented reliability with broad SATA compatibility, making it suitable for upgrading legacy HDD-based systems, server boot volumes, application storage, virtualization environments, and general enterprise workloads.
Description
The Micron MTFDDAK960TDS belongs to the Micron 5300 PRO SSD family, an enterprise SATA storage platform designed for data-center and business environments where consistent performance, high availability, and compatibility with existing SATA infrastructure are important.
With a 960GB capacity, the drive provides substantial storage for operating systems, applications, virtual machines, databases, frequently accessed data, and server workloads. Its standard 2.5-inch 7mm-class form factor allows it to fit a wide range of enterprise servers, workstations, storage systems, and compatible desktop platforms.
The SSD uses a SATA III 6Gb/s interface and 3D TLC NAND flash. Maximum sequential performance is rated at approximately 540 MB/s read and 520 MB/s write, providing a significant improvement in responsiveness compared with conventional mechanical hard disk drives.
For random workloads, available specifications for the 5300 PRO 960GB configuration indicate performance of up to approximately 95,000 random read IOPS and 95,000 random write IOPS under specified test conditions.
The MTFDDAK960TDS is also designed for the enterprise storage market and has been used in server and storage platforms requiring 2.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s SSDs. Supermicro’s compatibility database, for example, lists the complete MTFDDAK960TDS-1AW1ZABYY configuration as a 960GB SATA3 drive.
Important Part-Number Note
MTFDDAK960TDS is the base model identifier. Micron produced multiple complete configurations under this base number, including:
- MTFDDAK960TDS-1AW1ZABYY
- MTFDDAK960TDS-1AW15ABYY
- MTFDDAK960TDS-1AW16ABYY
- Other suffix variations
The suffix can identify configuration-specific characteristics such as security/encryption, sector format, and other product options. For example, the -1AW16ABYY version is listed with AES 256-bit encryption. Therefore, the complete MPN printed on the SSD label should be verified when a specific security or sector configuration is required.

4. Applications
The Micron MTFDDAK960TDS 960GB is suitable for:
- Enterprise servers
- Data-center infrastructure
- Server boot drives
- Operating-system storage
- Application servers
- Database servers
- Virtualization hosts
- Virtual machine storage
- Workstations
- Business desktops
- Network-attached storage systems
- SATA storage arrays
- File and application servers
- Read-intensive enterprise applications
- Legacy server storage upgrades
- HDD-to-SSD upgrades
- Enterprise caching applications where supported
Its SATA III interface makes it particularly useful for upgrading systems that do not provide NVMe connectivity but still require faster and more responsive solid-state storage.
5. Compatibility
The MTFDDAK960TDS is designed for systems supporting:
- 2.5-inch SATA SSDs
- SATA III / 6Gb/s
- Enterprise server SATA backplanes
- SATA-compatible storage controllers
- 2.5-inch server drive carriers
- Compatible desktop and workstation SATA interfaces
The SSD can also be used with a compatible SATA interface operating at a lower SATA generation, although maximum performance will be limited by the host interface.
Important: Physical 2.5-inch compatibility alone does not guarantee compatibility. Before installation, verify the server’s SATA backplane, drive carrier, controller, firmware, hot-swap requirements, and supported SSD list.
Supermicro’s compatibility database confirms the complete MTFDDAK960TDS-1AW1ZABYY as a 960GB SATA3 6Gb/s 2.5-inch Micron drive.
