The Cisco Catalyst 9400 Series 480GB M.2 SATA memory is a solid-state drive designed for Supervisor modules in Catalyst 9400 switches. It provides 480 GB of high-reliability storage for OS images, logs, and configuration files.
This 480 GB M.2 SATA SSD is supported on Supervisor Engine 2T, 2TX, and 2YSE modules in the Cisco Catalyst 9400 Series. Verify compatibility in the module’s hardware installation guide.
The drive offers sequential read speeds up to 500 MB/s and write speeds up to 450 MB/s, with endurance rated at 640 TBW (terabytes written) and a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours.
Power down the switch, open the Supervisor’s drive bay cover, insert the M.2 SATA SSD into the M.2 slot at a 30° angle, secure with the provided screw, replace the cover, and power on. Confirm detection via CLI: “show platform hardware m.2.”
No. This M.2 SATA SSD is not supported for hot-swapping. Always power down the Supervisor module and follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions before removal or installation.
The 480 GB SSD stores Cisco IOS XE software images, configuration files, system logs, and packet capture data. It supports all 17.x and later IOS XE releases on Catalyst 9400 Switches.
Yes. The drive supports AES-256 encryption when paired with Supervisor Engine features. Enable encryption via CLI: “license boot module <module> technology-package encryption.”
Operating temperature: 0 °C to 55 °C (32 °F to 131 °F); storage temperature: –40 °C to 85 °C (–40 °F to 185 °F); relative humidity: 5% to 95% non-condensing.
Cisco provides a limited lifetime warranty on this SSD when installed in a Catalyst 9400 switch under Cisco’s SMARTnet service contract. Warranty terms vary by region.
Use the Supervisor CLI: “show platform hardware m.2 health” returns SMART attributes, wear level, remaining life percentage, and temperature readings.
No. Cisco only supports Cisco-branded M.2 SATA SSDs listed in the hardware installation guide. Using unauthorized drives voids warranty and can cause software incompatibility.
The drive is an M.2 2280 form factor (22 mm × 80 mm) with a SATA III (6 Gb/s) interface, keyed for M.2 socket 2 (B+M).
Order the SSD using Cisco SKU C9400-SSD-480GB= via your Cisco reseller or the Cisco Commerce Workspace. Reference the Catalyst 9400 series hardware guide for ordering information.
With an endurance rating of 640 TBW and enterprise-grade wear leveling, the SSD supports up to 5 years of continuous operation in typical Catalyst 9400 deployments.
Firmware updates are delivered through IOS XE software releases. The Supervisor automatically updates SSD firmware during the next platform software upgrade if a newer firmware build is included.
The SSD features power-loss protection capacitors that flush internal buffers to NAND in the event of sudden power loss, safeguarding file system integrity.
