Title: Samsung's new upcoming 30TB SSD (2.5-inch) and future of hdd mining (Burst, etc)
Post by: shield132 on February 20, 2018, 11:42:23 PM
The model I am talking about is PM1643. It's built from 32 sticks of 1TB NAND flash packages each of which contains 16 layers of 512Gb V-NAND chips (This is what I read). Seems it's not currently known exacly when the item will be on sale but samsung is going to expand it's range of SSD's this year.
So what do you think guys about this news?

Why does it matter? You realize it will be prohibitively expensive right? So much so that any money gained from mining would be nothing compared to what it cost.

Hope you may realize that if it costs a lot (we still don't know), this will decrease the price of all "lower" SSDs. So yes, it still matters.

last time i checked ROI for hdd mining is more than a year so i guess it's not worth of investment.

30tb = $30k, don't even know why this was posted here, this is not for mining, this is for enterprise. The only thing we don't need right now is hd ssd mining to become like gpu mining where trolls spend $3000 to get back $500 year hehe, imagine trolls spending $30.000 on a ssd 30tb to get back $500 year hehe, this is becoming stupid and you trolls are what we call mindless creatures cause you have more money than sense but funny thing is money has its limits to how much mindless you can be hehe, everytime you are mindless everytime you lose everytime you are step behind to get it back, well dont even know why i'm saying this, you mindless creatures never learn it anyway.

Do you mean me as a mindless person? If yes, seems you need to learn a lot in this life because "mindless creatures" don't have "more money" like you say. Much money needs "brain" to manage or smarter person will steal it easily without even understanding. Also I suggest you to be a little bit "polite". Also will be better if you understand what you write and why because as you say you "don't know" (see last proposal if it seems hard to understand what I mean).
I don't have any experience in HDD mining and that's why I created this thread and wanted to know opinion of other people, what they thought about this new ssd.

Go to an HDD mining thread and ask if speed does matter, maybe?
You'll learn it doesn't, or very marginally.

Uh, no.  It won't at all.  This is a 12GB SAS SSD.  They have been around a long time, this one is just bigger.
SAS SSD's command their high price because they do stuff the crap we buy at newegg doesn't do.  Like not fail, and recover data even when chips are really messed up.

At this point, these are all just commodoties, and the price of the nand drives the price of the drive for consumers, and the price of the _feature sets_ drives the price of the drives in the enterprise side.  The NAND manufacturers hate to sell bits to the spot market, so they all have efforts in place to build and ship higher up the food chain.
