C9610-SSD-480G-V1 Description
The C9610-SSD-480G-V1 is a Cisco C9610 Series 480GB SATA SSD module for supervisor-local storage in C9610R modular campus core chassis. The module installs in the front-panel SATA SSD slot of a C9610-SUP-3 or C9610-SUP-3XL supervisor, formats as EXT4 by default with EXT2 and EXT3 also supported, and runs on Cisco IOS XE 17.18.1 or later. The SSD firmware cannot be upgraded, and the module cannot be read from ROMMON, so it cannot serve as a boot device.

Application Scenarios
On a C9610R core switch, the module gives the supervisor local disk for packet captures and analysis files that engineers collect while troubleshooting, handled with the IOS XE read, write and copy file operations.
In a campus core that runs hosted applications, the module holds application data and monitoring files on the supervisor itself, with S.M.A.R.T. drive health available from the CLI.

C9610-SSD-480G-V1 and C9610-SSD-960G-V1 are the same C9610 SATA SSD module, EXT4 by default and supported from Cisco IOS XE 17.18.1, and only the capacity differs: 480GB here against 960GB. The 480GB module suits supervisors that hold containers, packet captures or monitoring data within 480GB, while storage plans above that need C9610-SSD-960G-V1, which is also the largest SSD Cisco lists for C9610-SUP-3 and C9610-SUP-3XL. C9K-F3-SSD-480GB, shown in the table as a 480GB pluggable module, is not on Cisco’s list of SATA SSDs for C9610; Cisco lists it for the Catalyst 9550 series, so a C9610 supervisor takes C9610-SSD-480G-V1 instead.
Ordering Checklist
- C9610 supervisors: Use C9610-SUP-3 and C9610-SUP-3XL in a C9610R, on Cisco IOS XE 17.18.1 or later. The module fits the SATA SSD slot on the supervisor front only and is supported from 17.18.1.
- Optional supervisor slot: Add the SSD as its own line next to each supervisor that needs local storage. The supervisor ships without it, and it is not in the Cisco C9610 ordering guide table.
- Catalyst 9550 SSDs: Use the C9610-SSD- parts, not the C9K-F3 or C9K-F4 SSD models listed on the same SATA SSD page, which are for the C9550 series, not C9610.
