Storage

PC makers big and small haven’t kept up with recent SSD trends. It’s time for them to do better so we can all get the speedy, roomy boot drive we deserve.

In 2019, we expect SSD prices to continue to drop while capacities increase thanks to the shift to QLC and 96-layer NAND. Will prices consistently drop below 10 cents per GB?

Now that SSD prices are falling and capacities are increasing thanks to QLC and Chinese flash, I’m ready to ditch the hard drive for good.

We take 64 of the fastest PCIe SSDs on the planet (32 Intel NVMe DC P3700's and 32 Fusion ioMemory SSDs) out for a spin in the FSA 200 PCIe SSD enclosure.

Samsung's SM863 hits the sweet spot of NAND's developmental cycle as cost continues to plummet.

Exablox's OneBlox 4312 packs the goodness of object storage wrapped in the industry-standard SMB/NFS interface, and at a competitive price point.

The run-up to the Flash Memory Summit is always a busy time of year for us on the enterprise storage side of Tom's. SSD and storage manufacturers always release their products around the time of the big trade shows, and this year is no exception.
