十年之前,所有的PC用户都在殷切期盼硬盘的容量达到1GB。在希捷刚刚达到这一目标并且CPU和内存性能不断提升之后,我们却又发现无论是在DOS下加载多少Smartdrv,其速度依然难以令人满意。此后长达十年的光阴中,我们一次又一次地期待容量与速度的双重突破,然而等来的多半是失望与不满。就在我们抱怨硬盘技术步履蹒跚之时,却猛然发现以FlashROM芯片为基础的闪存技术有望取代硬盘,甚至非易失性的MRAM也跃跃欲试。硬盘究竟会不会被取代?硬盘技术又有了哪些改进?未来的硬盘将会发展成什么样?这些问题都是读者十分关心的话题,也是我们今天的讨论内容。
Ten years ago, all PC users are eagerly looking forward to the hard drive capacity of 1GB. Just after Seagate reached that goal and CPU and memory performance were on the rise, we found the speed was still not satisfactory, no matter how much Smartdrv was loaded under DOS. Over the ten years since then, we have been looking forward to the double breakthrough in capacity and speed again and again, however, most of the disappointment and dissatisfaction came. Just as we complained about the downturn in hard disk technology, we suddenly found FlashROM-based flash memory technology is expected to replace the hard disk, and even non-volatile MRAM is eager. Hard drive will not be replaced? What are the hard disk technology improvements? The future of the hard disk will be developed into what? These issues are readers are very concerned about the topic, but also our discussion today.
