Micron Releases 3610 Gen5 QLC SSD

Micron unveils the 3610 SSD, a PCIe Gen5 client drive using 9th-gen QLC NAND and a Phison E31 controller, available in 1–4TB capacities with a reviewed 2TB 2280 model. Micron rates 11,000 MB/s sequential reads and up to 9,300 MB/s writes with up to 1.6M IOPS, while a DRAM-less HMB design improves power efficiency but reduces sequential read performance in LLM loading tests.
Scoring Rationale
Actionable Gen5 client SSD data and notable burst write gains, limited by weaker sequential reads and niche notebook focus.
