Data Retention

Data retention refers to the SSD's media (NAND flash) to retain programmed data when
the SSD is powered off. The two primary factors influencing data retention are degree of
use (the number of program/erase cycles on the media) and temperature.
Degree of use: As NAND flash is used (programmed and erased), its natural ability to
retain charge (programmed data) decreases. When the SSD ships from the factory, it is
typically able to retain user data for up to 10 years when powered off. As the SSD is
used, this decreases to typically 1 year.
Temperature: The SSD's ability to retain data when powered off is also related to tem-
perature—as the temperature increases, data retention decreases.
Note: All data retention-related values in the data sheet are with the SSD powered off.
When the SSD is powered on, data retention is not an issue.
Micron SSD data retention with power removed: 1 year typical at 25°C
