Abavelisi bememori yelizwe eliqinileyo, abathi ngokuyinxenye baquka iWestern Digital Corporation, badla ngokubonisa ukungabi nathemba ebusweni bokuhla kwamaxabiso eemveliso zolu hlobo, kodwa umlawuli oyintloko wenkampani uSteve Milligan uthe kumsitho wokunika ingxelo ukuba intengiso iziphathe ngokuhambelana ne okulindelweyo, kunye nokukhula kwe-harbinger kukuvumela ukuba i-WDC inxulumanise ithemba elilumkileyo kunye nesiqingatha sesibini sonyaka. Kwindawo yee-hard drives, balungiselela ukukhulula iimodeli ezinomthamo we-16-18 TB, eya kuba nexabiso eliphantsi ukuvelisa kunabo bakhuphisana nabo. Lilonke, amandla apheleleyo okuqhuba athunyelwa kwicandelo leshishini ekupheleni konyaka angakhula nge-30%, kwaye hayi nge-20%, njengoko bekulindelwe ngaphambili.
Ikhalenda ye-WDC isandula ukuqukumbela ikota yesithathu yonyaka-mali ka-2019 kwinyanga ephelileyo, ngoko ke amanqakwana akwitheyibhile akufuneki akulahlekise. Ingeniso yeli xesha ifikelele kwi-3,7 yeebhiliyoni zeedola, eyi-13% ngaphantsi kwesiphumo sekota yangaphambili, kunye ne-27% ngaphantsi kwengeniso ngexesha elifanayo kunyaka ophelileyo. Eyona nto ibetha kakhulu ekunciphiseni kwamaxabiso kwimemori yelizwe eliqinileyo yayiyinzuzo yenzuzo: yehla ukusuka kwi-43,4% ngonyaka ngaphambili ukuya kwi-25,3%. Njengoko abameli benkampani becacisa, kuye kwafuneka ukuba sithathele ingqalelo ukuhla kwexabiso lempahla engathengiswanga. Le yokugqibela inyuke ukusuka kwiintsuku ezingama-79 ukuya kwezili-101, kwaye ingeniso yenkunzi yehla nge-73%.
Xa kuthelekiswa nekota yangaphambili, ixabiso eliqhelekileyo lokuthengisa leyunithi eqhelekileyo yememori yesimo esiqinileyo yehle nge-23%. Ngaphantsi kwezi meko, kwakungenakwenzeka ukuphepha ilahleko yokusebenza kwixabiso le-394 yezigidi zeerandi, kwaye ilahleko elahlekileyo ifikelele kwizigidi ze-581. I-WDC ihlose ukulwa nokulahlekelwa ngokunciphisa umthamo wokuvelisa imemori kunye nokunciphisa iindleko.
Ii-hard drives ziqhube ngcono kunokuba bekulindelwe
Iidrive ze-Classic hard zithengiswa ngcono kwikota yokugqibela kunokuba abaphathi beWDC bebelindelekile. Ngokwendalo, imfuno ikhule ikakhulu kwicandelo loshishino, apho iidrive zeplatter ezinomthamo omkhulu zazifuneka. Nangona inani lee-hard drives ezithengisiweyo kwicandelo le-server lehlile ukusuka kwi-7,6 yezigidi ukuya kwi-5,6 yezigidi kulo nyaka, umthamo we-gross hard drive unyuke nge-13% xa kuthelekiswa nekota yangaphambili. Ngaphezu koko, ingeniso evela kwiintengiso zee-hard drives yahlala kwinqanaba lekota yangaphambili. Umda wenzuzo evela kwimveliso yee-hard drives uhlala kwi-29% xa kuthelekiswa ne-33% ngonyaka ongaphambili.
Lilonke, i-27,8 yezigidi zee-hard drives zathengiswa ngexesha lekota, ubuncinane kwiikota ezintlanu zokugqibela. Kodwa umyinge wexabiso lokuthengisa lonyuke ukusuka kwi-72 yeedola ukuya kwi-73 yeedola. Imfuno yeePC yehle kancinci kunokuba bekulindelwe, kodwa i-brand-state drives drives iqhube kakuhle kwicandelo labaxumi, kubandakanya iimveliso ezisekwe kwimemori ye-BiCS4. Ukuthandwa kwee-SSD ze-WDC zangaphandle ziyaqhubeka nokukhula. Umthamo oqhelekileyo wemveliso ye-brand-state eqinile unyuke ngama-44% enyakeni, kwaye oku kubangelwa ikakhulu kukutshintsha kwexabiso.
Abameli be-WDC bagxininise ekusetyenzisweni kwe-helium-ezaliswe zii-hard drives ngeeteleskopu ezincede ukwakha umfanekiso wento ebizwa ngokuba "yi-black hole." Bazibonakalise kakuhle kwiimeko eziphakamileyo kunye nokutshintsha kweqondo lokushisa.
Kwikota yangoku, i-WDC iya kwandisa kakhulu umthamo wemveliso ye-14 TB hard drives. Ekupheleni konyaka, ii-hard drives ezinomthamo we-16 TB kunye ne-18 TB ziya kukhutshwa, eziza kusebenzisa isakhiwo sendabuko samacwecwe amagnetic kunye nesakhiwo "se-tiles", ngokulandelanayo. Kuzo zombini iimeko, ukurekhoda kwedatha kuya kwenziwa phantsi kweempembelelo ze-microwaves (MAMR). UToshiba ulungile I-WDC izalisekisa ngokurhweba le teknoloji yokurekhoda, kodwa lo mva uthembisa ukuba uya kudlula umntu okhuphisana naye ngokwexabiso lemveliso, kuba baya kusebenzisa iipleyiti ezincinci kunye neentloko. Ukuba sicinga ukuba uToshiba uceba ukubeka iiplati zemagneti ezisithoba kwimeko eqhelekileyo, ngoko i-WDC ayifanele ibe ngaphezu kwesibhozo.
Amaxabiso enkumbulo ajongela phantsi ukusebenza kwezimali
Ngelixa ihleli ingumenzi ophambili wenkumbulo eqinileyo, i-WDC ikhathazwa ngamaxabiso asezantsi oluhlobo lwemveliso. Kwikota edlulileyo, ingeniso evela ekuthengisweni kwememori ye-solid-state ayizange idlule i-1,6 yezigidigidi zeedola. Ekupheleni kwekhalenda ye-55, i-WDC iceba ukunciphisa umthamo wokuvelisa imemori nge-21-2019 ekhulwini. Kwikota yangoku, isabelo sememori ye-BiCS10 kwisakhiwo sokubonelela siya kufikelela kwi-15%, nangona ukuhanjiswa kwee-drives ezihambelanayo sele kuqalile kwicandelo lomxumi. Abathengi beenkampani baya kunikwa iidrive ezixhasa iprotocol yeNVMe, eyakhelwe kubalawuli bobunini.
Inkumbulo yentsapho ye-BiCS4 inokwakheka kwe-dimensional-dimensional kunye ne-96-layer structure. Ngokomenzi, unikezela ngeendleko eziphantsi kakhulu zokuvelisa kwishishini, kwaye ngoko kwisiqingatha sesibini sonyaka i-WDC iya kudlulisela inxalenye ebalulekileyo yomthamo wayo wokuvelisa kwimveliso yayo. Imveliso kwishishini e-Kuala Lumpur ikhutshwa kwaye imveliso idluliswa ukusuka eThailand ukuya kwiiPhilippines. Olu tshintsho luyimfuneko ukunciphisa iindleko. Kwaye okwangoku, ekupheleni konyaka, i-WDC ilindele ukuba imveliso yememori yelizwe lonke ikhule ngaphezulu kwe-30%. Oku kungaphantsi kunoko bekulindelekile ngaphambili.
