Hopefully the added layers means more storage per stack and therefore per drive. I'd love to get me a 2TB ssd

Now they have to convince people to buy OCZ/AMD SSDs

Toshiba make NAND for many drives. They are pretty reliable tbh.

Now they have to convince people to buy OCZ/AMD SSDs

Honestly if they make 2TB drives at a good price and considering OCZ are OCZ in name only now since the buyout I'd buy a drive if reviews were favorable and prices were reasonable, I'd love to get rid of HDD's

 

[Kushiro]

Never had a problem with OCZ thus far. Nor Toshiba for that matter. So Im in.

Bit of a cheap shot but do you think these capacities might be over reported?

There were no reported capacities in the news article? It's simply about how they layered it to 48 and are using TLC nand

Psh just get 8 of them then

In all seriousness I think it's time we get some 2TB+ ssds. Won't happen soon but one can dream.

Mmmmm, Imagine 4TB SSD's.

I'd have 1 x TB for my OS and a few games and 2 x 4TB's for music, Games, Films etc... *Drool*

Would take 3 years before it's affordable lol

I have a 1TB ssd for all my games/benchmarks. Half my steam library and still got about 550GB left. I use my 2TB external drive for programs that don't write to the registry and can be moved to different PCs easily and then music/backups

 

[Dawelio]

The day when 8TB SSDs will be affordable and that same day when someone asks for an HDD and the entire community go "da fuq? "

 

[CreatiXx]

Just 2 for music, etc? it would be enough but not for long though ^^
