Which one of you ballers is going to buy this 100 TB SSD?
 
Nimbus Data due to ship 100 TB SSD this summer

Pricing for the SATA-based ExaDrive 100 TB SSD is expected to fall closer to the low end of the current range of 50 cents to 90 cents per gigabyte, Isakovich said.

"It ain't cheap. Price will somewhat depend on availability of NAND," Jerome Wendt, president and lead analyst at DCIG, based in Austin, Texas, wrote in an email. "Big question: Is the market ready for a $50,000-plus price tag on a single SSD drive even if it does come with 100 TB of capacity?"

I made a thread less than a month ago saying that I had noticed a downturn in my need for storage space dramatically. OK so this isn't for the end user, but for a commercial situation, but that said, would you really want to commit all that data to a single drive anyway?

Well, i guess it makes sense for enterprise storage services, but not for common user.

$50,000 wait 18 months and they will drop to around $2000.

I have a friend that runs an IT shop. He recently installed 1 of these for a department president for testing. Pretty cool.

And when it develops a glitch ?? Not only 50 K but up to 100 TB of raw movie material is gone bye bye... Foolish...

FYI: we store one movie on 2 TB disc. ( leaves some room) but in 3 years of not using it it has a "hick ups".... so we back up to one more disc. So with the 50 K you may as well get two or three to stay protected....I think this size is like buying a bicycle with 20 wheels.:2 cents:

In 2004 or 2005 I was invited by Adobe to a user panel for Acrobat. At the end of the conference we got a swag bag that included a 16 Megabyte thumb drive!

I was so thrilled at this technology breakthrough that I wore it on a lanyard for months, transferring pdfs from computer to computer with lightning speed!

I wish I had a photo to remind me how ridiculous I must have looked.

Always store at least 2 copies of data, better to have 3. This will be great when the price drops.

You can always buy two drives and mirror them, but the catch is that two identical drives with identical work loads will wear out at the same rate, and could fail almost simultaneously. I had this happen on one of my servers that was going crazy with an unexpectedly high level of writes. I now use two different brands in a mirror, but that's probably not going to be so easy with a 100TB drive...

They claim these SSDs are impossible to wear out within 5 years.

The new Nimbus Data ExaDrive 50 TB and 100 TB SSDs also carry an unlimited endurance guarantee for five years, with no drive-write-per-day restrictions, unlike other SSDs that may have restrictions. Multiple error-correction code engines and the "sheer amount of capacity" in the drive help to enable that level of endurance, according to Isakovich.

"A customer can run any workload they want on it for five years. And if for whatever reason they somehow miraculously manage to wear it out, it's a no-cost replacement for them," he said. "But we've done the math, and we can offer this because it's impossible to wear it out in five years."
