SSDs are now coming in higher capacities, but Integral has gone even further with the SVR Pro 100 SRI, offering a massive 8TB of storage – far more than any of its competitors. Traditional hard drives with capacities of 8TB are rare enough, but for a solid state drive to pack that much storage into one body, and have it benefit from the higher speeds that SSDs provide, is very special indeed.
Of course, the price of an 8TB SSD is going to be prohibitive to most (we’ve contacted Integral to get confirmation of the price), so this is an SSD that is mainly for enterprise businesses that want high capacity and fast data transfer speeds in their data centres and NAS devices.
However, even if this drive is not aimed at your needs, it’s a good indication of where SSD technology is heading, and what will be possible in the future. The days of having to sacrifice capacity in order to have the speeds of an SSD could be over.
Features and specification
Whereas many modern SSDs are touting their 3D NAND technology as a way to increase capacities while keeping prices down (3D NAND stacks memory cells vertically in multiple layers), …read more
