Enterprise Advantages

Better Notebook Performance, Longer Battery Life

Steadily increasing storage requirements pose serious power and performance challenges to data centers. Enter a revolutionary new solution. Micron's new P200 SSDs for enterprise servers deliver much-needed performance while providing significant power savings.

SSD advantages for notebook applications are wide ranging and include everything from reliability, portability, and compatibility, to power savings and performance. Drive performance, which can be measured in sustained read and write speeds, is a particularly important metric for notebook computers. Our C200 drives deliver, using MLC NAND process technology and optimized NAND management algorithms. And when you combine that increased performance with improved boot and application load times and lower power consumption, you get a better overall user experience.
