The Week In Storage: 3D XPoint Optane And Lenovo SSDs Spotted, Google’s SSDs Get Pwned, Toshiba Rising

The week in storage began with #Samsung ‘s 850 Evo, which breaks through the high-density barrier with 4 TB of capacity. The right balance of performance and cost is always important, so the high capacity alone doesn’t make the #SSD a winner. Chris Ramseyer tested the 850 Evo to see if it would take flight, and the verdict is resoundingly positive, as long as one ignores the $1,499 price tag. #xpoint #Microsoft #Drobo #Google #Microsoft #NAND #Lenovo #Toshiba
