Seagate presents its 22 and 24TB drives
-
Seagate has released 22 and 24TB hard drives. It has planned the 30TB for after the summer, which will be achieved by launching its HAMR technology.
-
During the first or second quarter of this year, 22 and 24 TB capacities will arrive with current technology.
For the third quarter, Seagate will launch its Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording (HAMR) technology on a 30 TB disk for the first time. This technology will increase the capacity of future HDDs (5TB per platter in the lab) and in 2026 Seagate intends to sell capacities of 50TB and above in a single 3.5-inch HDD.Considering the losses in the sector, we can assume that this technology will arrive in the consumer market after its first iterations and cost reduction.
