Solid state drives are known to improve performance but have been limited when it comes to storage capacity. That is about to change with the new 2.5” drives from SanDisk. The company has introduced Optimus Max SSD line with 4TB capacity. And they also intend to introduce an 8TB and 16TB models in the future. According to the company, performance numbers of these drives allow for sequential read/write of up to 400/400 MB/s and random read/write IOPS of 75K/15K. We’re sure these drives won’t come cheap but they do say it would offer the high performance drives “at consumer costs.” We’ll let you know if we find out more information.
