The amount of data that we create and store is growing exponentially. In just a few years, the world's data is
expected to reach 180 zettabytes. This growth is being driven by a number of factors, including the increasing
popularity of cloud computing, the proliferation of mobile devices, and the rise of big data analytics.
To meet the demands of this data growth, storage device manufacturers are developing new technologies that offer
higher capacities and better performance. Three of the most popular storage devices on the market today are the 30.7TB
SSD U.2 drive, the P5336, and the HDD 22TB.
