However, Business Director BS Teh told TechRadar confirmed, that regular users will be able to buy it later. These are classic 3.5″ models for the SATA interface, which do not require any special hardware on the computer side.
The company has not yet announced the price. However, she was surprised by the fact that she already has a 32TB model ready. Both with 10 platters and laser track heating technology, but the smaller drive uses conventional PMR type writing, the larger one relies on shingle SMR.
BS Teh is already looking forward to 40- and 50TB models, which we will see in the coming years. According to the company, the capacity will grow only thanks to the densifying footprints, not by increasing the number of plates. The current ten is a reasonable maximum in terms of reliability, consumption, heating and also noise.
