Samsung today announced what it is calling the first multi-terabyte consumer solid-state drive (SSD), which will offer 2TB of capacity in a 2.5-in. form factor for laptops and desktops.

The new 850 Pro and 850 EVO SSDs double the maximum capacity of their predecessors.

As with the previous 840 Pro and EVO models, Samsung used its 3D V-NAND technology, which stacks 32 layers of NAND atop one another in a microscopic skyscraper that offers vastly greater flash memory density. Additionally, the drives take advantage of multi-level cell (MLC) and triple-level cell (TLC) (2- and 3-bit per cell) technology for even greater density.

The new 850 SSD Pro and EVO drives remain in the same 7mm, 2.5-in. aluminum case as their predecessors did. The capacities include 120GB, 250GB, 500GB, 1TB and 2TB models.

The 850 Pro is designed for power users and client PCs that may need higher performance with up to 550MBps sequential read and 520MBps sequential write rates and up to 100,000 random I/Os per second (IOPS). The 850 EVO SSD has slightly lower performance with 540MBps and 520MBps sequential read/write rates and up to 90,000 random IOPS.

I'm waiting for the 4 TB models.

BTW, did you peeps see the Seagate Archive HDD in standard 3.5 inch format?

6 TB and 8 TB.

8 TB for $329 at MSY. It was $315 and then they tacked a bit more on.

Samsung unveils 2.5-inch 16TB SSD


At the Flash Memory Summit in California, Samsung has unveiled what appears to be the world's largest hard drive—and somewhat surprisingly, it uses NAND flash chips rather than spinning platters. The rather boringly named PM1633a, which is being targeted at the enterprise market, manages to cram almost 16 terabytes into a 2.5-inch SSD package. By comparison, the largest conventional hard drives made by Seagate and Western Digital currently max out at 8 or 10TB.

We don't have a price for Samsung's 16TB PM1633a, but we can't imagine that it'll be cheaper than £5,000. But hey, you would be the owner of the world's largest drive!

I'm not quite ready to purchase it yet.:tearful
