'Samsung’s solution, called V-NAND, has seen remarkable gains since its introduction. In the first year, the company stacked 24 layers on a single die, while in 2014 it managed 36. The 16TB SSD kicks that up to 48. The implications of storage breakthroughs like this go beyond just data centers and laptops. By applying an innovative manufacturing technique to existing flash technology, Samsung has created a hard drive that could store well over 3,000 high-definition copies of 'Mad Max: Fury Road' on your MacBook Pro. It might sound unlikely that you’ll ever need 16TB of space or be willing to pay for it. For now these are far more likely to end up in servers; the closest you’ll likely come to using one is if it happens to wind up powering a cloud you tap into.'
