• 2.4 GHz base clock, 4.1 GHz max turbo
• 30MB Intel Smart Cache
• PCIe Gen 4.0 support for faster connectivity
• Support for 8 DDR5 memory channels at 5600 MHz
• Intel Deep Learning Boost for AI acceleration
• Intel Speed Select Technology for optimized performance control
• Enhanced Security with Intel Software Guard Extensions (Intel SGX) and Total Memory Encryption (TME)
• Advanced power management for optimized energy consumption

These features make the Storage Large v4 a powerhouse for both storage-heavy and compute-intensive tasks, delivering better parallelism, AI readiness, and energy efficiency than previous generations.

Advantages of the Micron 7450 MAX NVMe Drives

The Micron 7450 MAX series is engineered for high endurance and maximum performance in demanding enterprise environments. Key benefits include:

• Outstanding endurance with 3 Drive Writes Per Day (DWPD)
• Ultra-low latency for rapid data access
• PCIe Gen 4 NVMe interface for faster throughput
• Enterprise-grade reliability with power loss protection
• Ideal for cache layers, metadata storage, and high-transaction workloads

When deployed in the Storage Large v4, these drives ensure low-latency storage performance critical for database operations, AI/ML training, and Ceph cluster journaling.

Storage Servers with 4x 6.4TB NVMe Micron 7450 MAX Drives

Each OpenMetal Large v4 Storage Server is engineered to deliver both massive storage capacity and high-speed performance out of the box, making it ideal for modern enterprise storage needs. The default configuration includes:

• 12 x 20TB HDDs (240TB raw capacity):
  Perfect for large datasets, cold storage, and long-term archival.
• 4 x 6.4TB Micron 7450 MAX NVMe SSDs (25.6TB total):
  Optimized for fast caching, journaling, metadata operations, or high-throughput workloads.
• 2 x 960GB Boot Disks:
  Dedicated disks for operating system and services, ensuring separation of storage tiers.
• 4 Hot-Swappable NVMe Bays:
  Enables easy drive replacement and future upgrades without service disruption.

The Micron 7450 MAX NVMe SSDs offer enterprise-grade performance:

• Sequential Reads up to 6,800 MB/s | Sequential Writes up to 5,600 MB/s
• Up to 1M Read IOPS and 400K Write IOPS
• <80µs latency, 3 DWPD endurance for write-heavy workloads

Custom NVMe Upgrade Options

Though each Storage v4 server comes standard with 4 x 6.4TB Micron 7450 MAX drives, customers have full control over their flash tier. OpenMetal offers a range of upgrade options (additional cost) that allow you to fine-tune performance, endurance, and capacity to suit your workload:

This level of customizability means you can adapt your server’s performance profile to match specific application demands—whether you’re running Ceph journaling, block storage, object metadata indexing, or caching layers.

Key Differences:

• More CPU cores and higher boost speeds mean significantly better parallel processing and workload handling.
• Higher raw storage capacity (240TB vs. 216TB HDD storage).
• Higher NVMe storage cache (25.6TB vs 16TB)
• Double the boot disk size for enhanced system resilience.
