More 128TB SSDs are coming as almost no one noticed this launch — another SSD controller that can support up to 128TB appeared paving the way for HDD-beating capacities::Phison quietly revealed an updated X2 SSD platform at CES

That’s because we’re having trouble just getting food. A shiny new and expensive SSD isn’t even on the list at this point.
I read 128GB SSDs and thought “who cares”
impressive.
I care about affordable stuf not luxury .
Realistically, a couple of 10TB drives would have me covered for like a decade at least. If these massive drives bring down the price of much smaller ones, I’m a happy boy.
That’s some nice density you got there. While you’re at it…
Can I get a 12.8TB drive 1/10th the physical size (m.2 2230) and has a steady transfer rate of 2.4GBs that costs <$200 dollhairs? Pretty please 🙏
Unless you’re using a NUC or similar, M.2 is the worst form factor - and consumer grade drives are all shit. If you’re in the market for storage I’d recommend looking at used enterprise U.2 drives in the 0.5-1 DWPD range. Adapters (PCIe or M.2 to U.2) are super cheap.
Edit: 12.8TB is gonna be a stretch, obviously, but even Solidigm TLC drives are quite a bit better than any consumer grade drives and I’ve seen some of the 7TB models go for surprisingly cheap.
I am using NUCs.
Sir, you forgot a 0 their…
There there. It’s okay.
That’s they’re they’re.
How expensive are they, $100,000 or maybe more?
Still can’t afford it.
Do you think the normal consumer would care? All that matters is for SSD to become as cheap or cheaper than HDDs or nothing
Man I has to read that 4 times before it registered. Fucking he’ll shits nuts
Call me when they somehow fit this on an SD card in another 10 years
I read it as 128GB. Then I was like, ohhhhhhhh. Sweet!
how much?
That’s cool and all. How many levels per cell? Can I have it in SLC? No? Ok then I’m good.
