Teddy Rogers Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I wonder how long I will have to live to see a 400TB SSD? Ted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Progman Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Samsung has a 30TB SSD and Seagate has a 60TB one already on the market. And this is of the few tech hardware industries actually making real progress in the last decade. So I imagine not too long to 400TB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom0s Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Worlds largest SSD recorded so far is sitting at 100TB currently. From Nimbus Data, was a 3.5" bay drive running under SATA or SAS. Granted they reveled it back in 2018, and SSD tech has GREATLY improved since then, so I'm sure the other companies have larger stuff behind the scenes now and just haven't shown it yet. Most of the work being done on the drive market that we are seeing publicly right now is optimizations to the caching and storing of data on the chips and not so much in regards to chasing the larger sizes for the consumer market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kao Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 10-12TB spinning drives only this year started to get to a reasonable $/GB ratio. So, 100TB+ SSD is way, way out of reach for the ordinary consumer. And it will be out of reach for next 5-10years. BTW, the f*ing original article was talking about tape drives, not HDDs or SSDs. Personally, I wouldn't call that a drive - but English is not my native language.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy Rogers Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Apologies, I deviated the topic on the thought of an affordable 400TB SSD in my lifetime. We may need these capacities if heading to 8K and 16K video sources at some point in the future... Ted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
