With storage density quadrupling every presidential election cycle, customers can no longer justify making hardware investments that quickly become obsolete.
FORBES: With Apple's Endorsement, Cloud Storage Finally Comes Of Age
It is why cache offers faster access but lower storage density.
In addition, the inherent benefits of the platform, including the helium fill, allow HGST to significantly improve datacenter TCO on virtually every level: capacity, power, cooling and storage density.
ENGADGET: HGST develops helium-filled, high-capacity hard drives: no, they won't float away
Figure 2 in the accompanying power point file shows historical storage areal density (AD) growth for HDDs (this is directly related to the amount of digital storage that can be put on a disk in a hard disk drive) from Q1 2000 through Q1 2011.
FORBES: Why Government Regulators Should Approve Hard Disk Drive Company Consolidation
At the time there were two high density optical storage formats being developed.
Samsung started production of 10nm-class 64Gb MLC NAND flash memory in November last year, and in less than five months, has added the new 128Gb NAND flash to its wide range of high-density memory storage offerings.
New quantum computers have the potential to be millions of times faster than even our most powerful supercomputers today, quantum cryptography will usher in a new era of super-secure transactions and quantum storage will achieve unparalleled density.
The conference included many papers on various aspects and issues in energy assisted magnetic recording (HAMR is one version of this) as well as a technology called shingled magnetic recording where magnetic recorded tracks are written offset from each other giving a higher track density and thus more storage capacity.
Providing this storage capacity with HDDs and with slower areal density growth than in the past will require more HDD components and a major investment in HDD component capital equipment.
New ARM-based server all around lower power utilization, high density. 3Par has better solution in storage.
The highly advanced chip will enable high-density memory solutions such as embedded NAND storage and solid state drives (SSDs).
Our ability to store electricity in batteries is improving, but current low energy density makes batteries an inefficient choice for large-scale storage.
PureSystems consist of high-density boxes configured by IBM with x86 or Power processors, storage, and network connections all wired and ready to install in a data center in hours rather than months.
FORBES: IBM Launches New PureSystems For Transactions And Big Data Analytics
The automakers need to come out with battery packs that can retain a greater percentage of their storage capacity for longer, cost half as much, and have improved energy density, so that they can serve many driving cycles.
