The CEO of the world’s largest HDD supplier said it sold dozens of millions of units worth USD to two cloud computing companies




  • Despite the predictions, HDDs are here to stay and increase the capacity
  • Seagate recently sold a Hamr storage exabyte to two hyperscalers
  • “Tens of thousands of units” probably cost between $ 33 and $ 35 million

Although the tastes of Pure Storage, IBM and goal believe that writing is on the wall for hard drives, technology does not seem to disappear soon.

Seagate and its main rival Western Digital are working on magnetic recording methods that will allow units to continue increasing capacity, helping them maintain a clear advantage over the SSDs when it comes to storage density.
