Client SSD

The Future of Solid State Storage

Our client-focused C series drives provide dramatic improvements in capacity, power, and performance for a variety of applications.

Reach New Heights in Computing Performance

Our RealSSD™ C300 drives are designed to bring performance and portability to laptops and other computing applications. Because they take advantage of the SATA 6 Gb/s interface—with backward compatibility to SATA 3 Gb/s—they deliver blistering read and write speeds, helping improve boot and application load times. But even on SATA 3 Gb/s systems, the C300 drives still outperform other SSDs on the market and leave traditional hard drives in the dust. In fact, based on PCMark® Vantage scores, our C300 drives are nearly 14 times faster than standard hard drives, and they weigh less, consume less power, and are more durable.

And as a leader in NAND design and development, we’re the best-equipped to optimize NAND components for SSDs. Using leading 34nm NAND technology and a high-speed ONFI 2.1 interface, we provide the foundation for high performance and help you get the most out of your machine.

Breakthrough NAND Performance
Our C300 SSDs are able to capitalize on our high-speed MLC NAND because they're the first SSDs designed for the SATA 6 Gb/s interface. Because moving to SATA 6 Gb/s removes the bandwidth bottleneck, our 256GB drives can deliver sequential read and write speeds of up to 355 MB/s and 215 MB/s, respectively. That's much faster than drives that use the SATA 3 Gb/s interface. All this bandwidth-focused performance will help optimize your system, creating a better overall experience..

World's Fastest Client SSD
Our C300 drives are the fastest client SSDs on the market. To prove it, we tested our C300 drives against the best competitive SSD using the PCMark® Vantage benchmark on identical SATA 6 Gb/s systems.

**C200 drives are 2g heavier.

Designed for Windows® 7

Because our C300 SSD supports the Trim command and identifies itself as an SSD to the OS, it takes advantage of the SSD optimization features built into Windows® 7. It’s a small, but important, differentiation because SSDs manage data differently than a rotating hard drive. After Windows 7 knows it’s working with an SSD, the OS configures itself to optimize performance by canceling useless hard disk-focused tasks like defrag. The Trim command functions like an SSD clean-up utility, enabling the SSD to free up blocks occupied by deleted files, increasing write speeds and stretching drive endurance.

Is the C300 available in an industrial temperature option?: No. Micron’s C300 SSD is designed with commercial temperature applications in mind. The drive supports 0°C to +70°C operating temperature ranges.
Is the C300 SATA 6Gb/s SSD backward compatible with legacy SATA interface speeds?: Yes, the C300 supports the full range of SATA interface speeds, including SATA 6Gb/s, 3Gb/s and 1.5Gb/s. The drive will “auto downshift” to the appropriate interface speed upon completion of negotiation with the host.
Is there any over-provisioning with the C300 as Micron had with the C200?: No. Due to enhancements in the FTL (flash transition layer) architecture of the C300, over-provisioning is not required to achieve premium performance.
Is the C300 a good choice for enterprise applications?: The C300 is designed and optimized for the client computing segment. With that being said, there are pockets of applications within the enterprise computing space where the C300 can be a good fit. The C300 is designed with MLC NAND technology, whereas typical enterprise SSDs are designed with SLC technology due to the extended endurance and performance they provide. If the C300 is being considered for an enterprise application, Micron recommends reviewing the endurance specification in the C300 data sheet to ensure the total bytes written specified aligns with the expected application usage.
