Seagate has begun shipping its 44TB Exos HDDs based on its HAMR technology to two hyperscale customers as others qualify the all-new Mozaic 4+ hard drive platform.
The $370 price difference between the U.S. and the U.K. on 28TB hard drives meant that it's more cost effective to pay for a round-trip ticket and a hotel stay than to just purchase 10 drives locally.
Western Digital's production for 2026 is completely earmarked for its top seven customers, with a few long-term agreements already in place for the next couple of years.
Backblaze just released its annual drive reliability report, with the company getting a 1.36% annualized failure rate for 2025. It says that this is its best result since 2022.
After launching 32-terabyte HAMR drives, Seagate has achieved the same feat with CMR tech, releasing three new drives across its iconic product families. Starting at $699.99 and going all the way up to $849.99, these 32 TB hard drives spin at 7200 RPM, have transfer speeds of up to 285 MB/s, and five-year warranties.
