If your data center is looking for the biggest and boldest in a standard-footprint solid-state drive (SSD), Seagate has you covered with its new record-breaking offering. The 60-terabyte (TB) Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) SSD features twice the density and four times the capacity of the next-highest capacity SSD available today—equivalent to the capacity needed to accommodate 400 million photos on a typical social media platform or 12,000 DVD movies. Just think what your imaging department could do with that!
The 60TB SAS SSD unit also simplifies the configuration process of accommodating “hot” and “cold” data, enabling data centers to use the same enterprise HDD 3.5-inch storage form factor. This eliminates the added step of separating out different types of data for near-term availability versus long-term storage.
With this unit, data centers can ensure accessibility to ever-increasing amounts of data without having to add additional servers or incorporate additional management steps. It also provides a pathway for data centers to easily grow from the current 60TB capacity to accommodate 100TB of data or more in the future—and all in the same form factor.
