The Galaxy S26 is expected to feature UFS 4.1 storage supported by the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, promising faster data access and improved responsiveness, potentially making it a performance leader among flagship smartphones.
Seagate has demonstrated a new technology that will enable the production of hard drives with capacities over 90TB in the future by storing data in multiple layers using heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) technology. This breakthrough, developed in collaboration with Tohoku University and Japan’s National Institute for Materials Science, allows for the potential of 3- to 4-level recording, paving the way for hard drives with capacities over 120TB. While solid state drives offer speed, hard drives still excel in capacity, and this advancement could revolutionize storage capabilities in a small space.
Solidigm has announced the launch of its D5-P5336 122.88TB NVMe SSD, set to ship in Q1 2025. This high-capacity SSD offers significant storage density and power efficiency, making it ideal for data centers and AI clusters. The drive fits in a standard U.2 form factor, allowing for up to 3PB of storage in a 2U 24-bay server. Despite concerns about write endurance on QLC SSDs, Solidigm assures that the endurance is sufficient for typical use cases. The new SSD is expected to compete with traditional hard drives on both density and efficiency.
