Samsung isn't lagging behind as far as technology development is concerned as it unveils its 16 terabytes-big hard drive.

The Korean tech opressors this week introduced the PM1633a, what it calls the world's largest hard drive, according to Ars Technica UK and Golem.de.

The 2.5-inch solid state drive, targeted at the enterprise market, packs an impressive 15.36TB of storage. To put that in perspective, the largest hard drives made by Seagate and Western Digital top out at 8 to 10TB, Ars noted.

Ars' 'Sebastian Anthony explains: "The secret sauce behind Samsung's 16TB SSD is the company's new 256Gbit (32GB) NAND flash die; twice the capacity of 128Gbit NAND dies that were commercialized by various chip makers last year," Sebastian continues; "To reach such an astonishing density, Samsung has managed to cram 48 layers of 3-bits-per-cell (TLC) 3D V-NAND into a single die. This is up from 24 layers in 2013, and then 36 layers in 2014." http:///uHZ0zVXsu1
And the PM1633a? It uses between 480 and 500 of the new NAND flash chips. Samsung this week at the Flash Memory Summit in California showed off a server with 48 of the new SSDs installed for a total of 768TB.

Though, no word on pricing or availability details for the PM1633a has been revealed , don't expect this supreme storage to come cheap.
