Toshiba plans to launch 30TB capacity HDDs next year

Toshiba showed its product roadmap during a meeting with its investors in Japan, in which its subsidiary, Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation, revealed that the company will continue betting on mechanical storage units (HDDs), revealing that this year they will launch the first 26TB capacity hard drives , while during the second half of 2023 we will see drives with up to 30TB of available storage.

Looking to an even further future, in 2025 they will reach 35TB, while in 2060 they will be capable of reaching 40TB. To make this possible, the company will employ new data storage technologies, in addition to increasing the number of platters within the unit.

"Toshiba continues to work closely with cloud companies to understand their exact capacity and performance requirements, and the ability to use our next-generation technologies will be key to meeting our customers' needs," said Raghu Gururangan, vice president, Toshiba America. Electronic Components.

"Many years of working closely with our major component suppliers are leading to breakthrough technology advancements for higher capacities, ultimately lowering the TCO (total cost of ownership) of our Nearline hard drives."

Data generation continues to grow at a double-digit rate each year, and companies' demand for the cloud to store growing data is driving the need for higher-capacity hard drives. To meet this growing demand, Toshiba plans to leverage its proprietary recording technologies, FC-MAMR (Flow Controlled Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording), MAS-MAMR (Microwave Assisted Switching Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording), and disk stacking to increase the capacity of Nearline hard drives to 30TB in fiscal year 2023, and beyond.
