Podcast: Areal Density, AI Design And The 50TB Hard Drive
ComputerWeekly, Friday, November 29th, 2024
We talk to Seagate about hard disk drives, the use of artificial intelligence to design them with higher areal density, more terabytes per platter, and capacities up to 50TB, especially with HAMR recording
In this podcast, Antony Adshead is joined by Jason Feist, senior vice-president for marketing in products and markets at Seagate, to look at how spinning disk can get to 40TB and 50TB.
We talk about hard disk drive technologies such as heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) that can boost areal density and pack more data onto disk platters.
Feist also talks about the future of hard disk drives (HDDs) and the use cases suited to them.
