Does this mean cheaper larger SSD's? I hope so.


It'd be nice to relegate mechanical drives to long term archival.

It is kinda doable. SATA SSDs are cheap enough to start phasing out mechanical drives.

Just look at the size of the building, at how it compares to the vehicles. Norway doesnt have any buildings this size. Its insane, yet nothing special to Samsung.
