24GB, surely 24TB?
Will these be as fast as SSD's?
At sequential transfers, for that data density, sure.Originally Posted by OilSheikh
Random access still has the seek problem, though. In fact, positioning your head to a track that's 10nm wide might be difficult... I'm guessing tracks will be wider than that.

great, i'll be able to fit my pr0n collection onto two or three drives!

Hmm, maybe I'll hold off replacing my 3 1.5Tb drives in my RAID array
Desktop MSI B550M Mortar, Ryzen 5 3600, 16GB DDR4 3200, 1Tb NVMe SSD, 2x480GB SATA SSD, 4Tb + 2x2Tb HDD, 3x monitors, Windows 10 Pro 64bit
Server MSI Z170A Gaming M7, Intel i7-6700K, 16Gb DDR 2400, 120Gb SATA SSD, 1Tb WD Black HDD, 4x 4Tb HDD in RAID5
The rebuild times would be crazy with drives that big. RAID6, RAIDZ2 or even RAID1 across three drives would be a little bit safer.3x24TB (48TB RAID5) sounds good to me
Minor nitpick: Tb != TB.

Definitely RAID-6/Z2 for disks that large. Chances of an unrecoverable read error on another disk during a resilver would be too high for my liking otherwise.

I believe on disks that large with current unrecoverable bit error rates for consumer HDD's, an unrecoverable error on restore is actually more likely than not!

This'll be a nice stop-gap between now and holographic (if and when). (Reminds me a bit of Red-Eye.)
