SK Hynix announced the release of 300 TB SSD
07.05.24SK Hynix announced at a press conference in Seoul that it has created an SSD with a huge capacity of 300 TB. This SSD was introduced as part of a broad portfolio of devices and technologies for data centers and artificial intelligence.
The company believes that the total volume of data created worldwide in the age of artificial intelligence will increase to 660 zettabytes (2 to the power of 70) by 2030 from 15 zettabytes in 2014. All this needs to be stored somewhere, and here a 100 TB HDD and a 300 TB SSD should play an important role.
It is not yet known which data transfer interface the 300 TB SK Hynix SSDs will operate through and what speed they will demonstrate, but such drives could provide the optimal combination of capacity, speed, power consumption and price per 1 TB. It is speculated that this offering could make the SK Hynix 300TB SSD competitive with Nimbus Data’s 3.5-inch ExaDrive drives, which can store up to 100TB.
Demand for high-performance, high-capacity drives will grow in the coming years, as will the need for large, fast storage arrays.
In addition to 300 TB SSDs, SK Hyniks is also working on the introduction of HBM4, HBM4E technologies, CXL unified memory solutions and the introduction of high-capacity memory such as LPDDR6, GDDR7, PIM and DDR5.
