Abakhiqizi benkumbulo yesimo esiqinile, okuyingxenye ehlanganisa i-Western Digital Corporation, bavame ukukhombisa ukungabi nathemba lapho bebhekene nokwehla kwamanani entengo yemikhiqizo yalolu hlobo, kodwa isikhulu esiphezulu sale nkampani uSteve Milligan uthe emcimbini wokubika ukuthi imakethe iziphathe ngokuhambisana nomthetho. okulindelweyo, kanye nokukhula kwezimpawu ezithile kuvumela i-WDC ukuthi ihlobanise ithemba elicophelelayo nengxenye yesibili yonyaka. Endaweni yama-hard drive, balungiselela ukukhulula amamodeli anomthamo we-16-18 TB, okuzoba ishibhile ukukhiqiza kunezimbangi zabo. Sekukonke, inani eliphelele lamadrayivu athunyelwa engxenyeni yebhizinisi ekupheleni konyaka lingakhula ngo-30%, hhayi ngo-20%, njengoba bekulindelekile ngaphambilini.
Ikhalenda le-WDC lisanda kuphetha ikota yesithathu yonyaka wezimali ka-2019 enyangeni edlule, ngakho-ke izichasiselo ezikumathebula akufanele zikudukise. Imali engenayo yalesi sikhathi ibe ngamaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-3,7, okungaphansi ngo-13% kunomphumela wekota edlule, kanye no-27% ngaphansi kwenzuzo ngesikhathi esifanayo ngonyaka odlule. Okushaywe kakhulu ekwehleni kwezintengo zenkumbulo yesimo esiqinile kwaba umkhawulo wenzuzo: yehle isuka ku-43,4% ngonyaka ngaphambili yaya ku-25,3%. Njengoba abamele inkampani bechaza, bekufanele sicabangele ukwehliswa kwentengo yezinto ezingadayiswanga. Lesi sakamuva sikhuphuke sisuka ezinsukwini ezingama-79 saya kweziyi-101, futhi ukushintshwa kwezimali kwehle ngo-73%.
Uma kuqhathaniswa nekota edlule, isilinganiso senani lentengo yokuthengisa yeyunithi evamile yomthamo wenkumbulo yesimo esiqinile sehle ngo-23%. Ngaphansi kwalezi zimo, kwakungenakwenzeka ukugwema ukulahlekelwa kokusebenza ngenani lezigidi ezingu-394 zamaRandi, futhi ukulahlekelwa okuphelele kwafinyelela ku-$ 581. I-WDC ihlose ukulwa nokulahlekelwa ngokunciphisa umthamo wokukhiqiza inkumbulo nokunciphisa izindleko.
Ama-hard drive asebenze kangcono kunalokho obekulindelwe
Ama-hard drive akudala athengiswa kangcono ngekota yokugcina kunokulindelekile abaphathi be-WDC. Ngokwemvelo, isidingo sakhula ikakhulukazi emkhakheni wezinkampani, lapho amadrayivu amakhulu we-magnetic platter ayedingeka khona. Nakuba inani lama-hard drive athengiswa engxenyeni yeseva lehlile lisuka ezigidini ezingu-7,6 laya ezigidini ezingu-5,6 phakathi nonyaka, umthamo we-gross hard drive ukhuphuke ngo-13% uma kuqhathaniswa nekota edlule. Ngaphezu kwalokho, imali engenayo evela ekuthengisweni kwama-hard drive yahlala isezingeni lekota edlule. Umkhawulo wenzuzo ovela ekukhiqizweni kwama-hard drive uhlala ku-29% uma uqhathaniswa no-33% ngonyaka odlule.
Sekukonke, kuthengiswe ama-hard drive ayizigidi ezingama-27,8 phakathi nekota, ubuncane bezingxenye ezinhlanu zokugcina. Kodwa isilinganiso sentengo yokuthengisa senyuke sisuka ku-$72 saya ku-$73. Isidingo sama-PC sehle kancane kunalokho obekulindelwe, kodwa amadrayivu e-solid state omkhiqizo enze kahle engxenyeni yamakhasimende, okuhlanganisa nemikhiqizo esekelwe kumemori ye-BiCS4. Ukuduma kwama-WDC SSD angaphandle kuyaqhubeka nokukhula. Isilinganiso somthamo othize womkhiqizo wesimo esiqinile sikhuphuke ngo-44% phakathi nonyaka, futhi lokhu kubangelwa kakhulu ukushintsha kwentengo.
Abamele i-WDC bagxile ekusetshenzisweni kwama-hard drive agcwele i-helium ngezibonakude ezisize ekwakheni isithombe salokho okubizwa ngokuthi “imbobo emnyama.” Bazibonakalise kahle ezimweni zokuphakama okuphezulu kanye nokushintsha kwezinga lokushisa.
Kule kota yamanje, i-WDC izokwandisa kakhulu amavolumu okukhiqiza ama-hard drive angu-14 TB. Ekupheleni konyaka, kuzokhishwa ama-hard drive anamandla we-16 TB kanye ne-18 TB, azosebenzisa isakhiwo sendabuko samapuleti kazibuthe kanye nesakhiwo "se-tile" ngokulandelanayo. Kuzo zombili izimo, ukuqoshwa kwedatha kuzokwenziwa ngaphansi kwethonya lama-microwaves (MAMR). U-Toshiba ulungile I-WDC isebenzisa ngokwentengiso lobu buchwepheshe bokuqopha, kodwa lobu buchwepheshe buthembisa ukuthi buzodlula esincintisana nabo ngokwezindleko zomkhiqizo, njengoba bazosebenzisa amapuleti kazibuthe ambalwa namakhanda. Uma sicabanga ukuthi i-Toshiba ihlela ukubeka amapuleti kazibuthe ayisishiyagalolunye esimweni esijwayelekile, i-WDC akufanele ibe ngaphezu kwesishiyagalombili.
Izintengo zememori zibukele phansi ukusebenza kwezimali
Ngenkathi isalokhu ingumkhiqizi omkhulu wenkumbulo yesimo esiqinile, i-WDC ihlushwa amanani aphansi alolu hlobo lomkhiqizo. Esikhathini esidlule, imali engenayo evela ekuthengisweni kwenkumbulo yesimo esiqinile ayizange idlule amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-1,6. Isilinganiso senzuzo yalolu hlobo lomkhiqizo sehle phakathi nonyaka sisuka ku-55% saya ku-21%. Ekupheleni kwekhalenda lika-2019, i-WDC ihlela ukunciphisa umthamo wokukhiqiza inkumbulo ngamaphesenti ayi-10–15. Kwikota yamanje, isabelo senkumbulo ye-BiCS4 esakhiweni sokuhlinzeka sizofinyelela ku-25%, nakuba ukulethwa kwamadrayivu ahambisanayo kusanda kuqala engxenyeni yamakhasimende. Amakhasimende ezinkampani azonikezwa amadrayivu asekela iphrothokholi ye-NVMe, eyakhelwe kuzilawuli zobunikazi.
Inkumbulo yomndeni we-BiCS4 inesakhiwo esinezinhlangothi ezintathu kanye nesakhiwo sezendlalelo ezingu-96. Ngokusho komkhiqizi, unikeza izindleko eziphansi kakhulu zokukhiqiza embonini, ngakho-ke engxenyeni yesibili yonyaka i-WDC izodlulisela ingxenye ebalulekile yomthamo wayo wokukhiqiza ekukhiqizeni kwayo. Ukukhiqizwa ebhizinisini e-Kuala Lumpur kuyaqedwa futhi ukukhiqizwa kudluliselwa kusuka eThailand kuya ePhilippines. Lezi zinguquko ziyadingeka ukuze kuncishiswe izindleko. Kodwa-ke, ekupheleni konyaka, i-WDC ilindele ukuthi ukukhiqizwa kwenkumbulo yombuso oqinile embonini yonke kukhule ngaphezu kwama-30%. Lokhu kuncane kunalokho obekulindelwe ngaphambilini.
