Cisco UCS Compatibility

This SSD is compatible with Cisco UCS C-Series servers that support NVMe U.2/U.3 drives when used with the appropriate Cisco 2.5" SFF tray:

• UCS M7 / M8 (Gen4/Gen5 full performance): C220 M7, C240 M7, C225 M7, C245 M7
• UCS M6 (Gen4 full performance): C220 M6, C240 M6, C225 M6, C245 M6
• UCS M5 (Gen3 – limited speed): C220 M5, C240 M5, C480 M5

Important Installation Notes

• Requires NVMe-enabled backplane for proper operation
• Must be installed in a Cisco-compatible 2.5" SFF drive tray
• Performance will be limited to PCIe Gen3 speeds in older M5 systems
• Cisco management tools may display the drive as non-Cisco firmware, but functionality remains unaffected

This Micron 7450 Pro SSD provides a strong balance of performance, endurance, and security, making it a reliable storage solution for modern Cisco UCS server infrastructures.
