How to install Micron 5400 MAX 1.92 TB

• Power down all equipment and disconnect from any power sources. Ground yourself to avoid static discharge before handling the drive.
• Open the server or workstation chassis and locate an available 2.5-inch SATA drive bay. Remove any existing drive if you are upgrading or insert the Micron 5400 MAX into an empty bay with a compatible caddy.
• Connect the drive to the system using a standard SATA data cable and a SATA power connector. Ensure firmly seated connections to prevent intermittent I/O errors.
• Secure the drive with screws or a drive sled in the designated mounting holes. Verify that the drive is level and properly seated to maintain stable operation and cooling.
• Power on the system and enter the BIOS/UEFI setup. Confirm that the drive is detected in the storage devices list and enable AHCI mode if required for optimal performance and compatibility.
• In your operating system or hypervisor, initialize and format the new SSD as appropriate for your workload. If you are migrating from an existing drive, use a cloning tool or backup/restore workflow to preserve data and ensure a smooth transition.
• Run firmware and health checks through your system management tools. Enable any recommended SMART monitoring, TRIM (where supported by the operating system), and other housekeeping tasks to maintain long-term performance and reliability.
