Micron Technology Inc. Enters Mass Production of HBM4 and PCIe Gen6 SSDs for AI
Micron Technology Inc. announced it has begun high-volume production of its next-generation HBM4 memory, PCIe Gen6 data center SSDs, and SOCAMM2 modules, targeting advanced AI infrastructure including platforms from NVIDIA Corporation.
The HBM4 36GB solution delivers over 2.8 TB/s bandwidth and more than 20% improved power efficiency versus the previous generation, addressing growing memory bottlenecks in large-scale AI models. Meanwhile, Micron’s 9650 PCIe Gen6 SSD—claimed as the industry’s first in mass production—offers up to double the read performance of Gen5 with improved energy efficiency, optimized for AI training and inference workloads.
The company is also scaling capacity with SOCAMM2 modules up to 192GB and demonstrating higher-density HBM4 configurations, reinforcing its position in next-generation AI memory and storage. The announcement highlights Micron’s role as a key supplier in the AI hardware ecosystem as demand for high-bandwidth, low-latency infrastructure accelerates.
