80TB? That is 2.5PB per U, 2.5x the density of Intel's Ruler. 105PB per Rack.
This is insane. And we expect to have 8 - 16x density improvement by 2025? That is 1EB per Rack! Compared to an estimate of 480TB HDD per U in 2025, or 20PB per Rack. That is 50x difference. The HDD estimate were from WD, MAMR 40TB HDD by 2025.
Yea I remember these guys back in the day when they made some pretty crappy cd drives. They bought the ODD division from BenQ dumbed the internals down to cut costs and released drive that had crap working specs or would spin out of control causing the disk to explode in the drive. Not to sure I would trust this company in any market segment they venture into.
Lite-On's OEM SSD's are excellent. Most of them are essentially reference designs of Micron SSD's, using the same Marvell controllers. Lite-On claims to develop all their firmware in-house, but that probably means they are just taking the vendor firmware and keeping it as-is, such as the case of the ZETA consumer SSD's that use a completely vertical Silicon Motion reference design down to the cache, NAND and PCB.
So basically they are taking their partner channels, buying power, and presence in OE integration, and applying that reach to other products, such as SSD's.
I mean look at their website, www.liteonssd.com they have like 100 different models in every form factor conceivable across 4 product categories\market segments. And datasheets for EACH model going back to 2015.
Yeah, a good bit of time ago, Samsung used to make such terrible HDDs that I nickednamed them "Samchung" - "chung" as in the sound it makes when the internal head hit something or the sound when I have to chunk them into the garbage. While Samsung is mostly out of the HDD market, their HDDs became decent performers over time. Currently, they are one of the leaders, if not the outright king of the hill, in SSDs.
So don't let past memories keep you away from products that might be outperforming your old expectations.

They sold allot of those "crappy" drives to oems like Dell and Gateway, and a bunch to Microsoft for the Xbox. They must have done something right.Samus - Monday, August 27, 2018 - link
