Miniature Computer Drives

The Samsung 950 Pro is an Impossibly Small Solid State Drive

— September 30, 2015 — Tech
Solid state drives (SSD) are the way to go when it comes to mobile (or even desktop, for some) computing, and the Samsung 950 Pro is set to improve on the technology like never before. Featuring an impossibly small size, the Samsung 950 Pro is designed to be future-ready rather than just suitable for today's computing needs. The Samsung 950 Pro 512GB model features an impressive read speed of 2,500 MB/s and a write speed of 1,500 MB/s; that's almost 4.5 times faster for reading and 2.5 times faster for writing than traditional SATA SSDs.

Coming available in October, the Samsung 950 Pro is perfect for mobile computers or workstations that require faster functionality without sacrificing a single detail.
Trend Themes
1. Increased Integration of SSD - A trend towards ever more powerful solid-state drives is likely to continue.
2. Miniaturization of Computing Components - Improvements in computing power are increasingly being driven by not only software but also hardware that must become smaller and smaller.
3. Higher Demand for Future Ready Products - As technology continues to evolve rapidly, consumers and businesses are increasingly looking for products that will continue to be useful and relevant for years to come.
Industry Implications
1. Consumer Electronics - The consumer electronics industry is likely to be impacted by increasing demand for portable, high-performance computing devices, as well as demand for future-ready components.
2. Business Computing - Businesses seeking to stay competitive will need to invest in hardware that can keep up with ever-increasing computing demands.
3. Cloud Computing Infrastructure - As cloud computing continues to grow in importance, the demand for powerful, scalable hardware in datacenters is expected to increase, driving innovation in the solid-state drive industry.
