Kioxia Unveils Highest Capacity SSD At 245.76 TB
Blocks & Files, Wednesday, July 23rd, 2025
Online storage capacity constraints are melting away with Kioxia announcing the largest capacity SSD at 245.76 TB, opening the door to a 200-plus petabyte rack and a five-rack exabyte configuration.
It complements the already announced 122.88 TB model and is intended for use in data lakes - where massive data ingestion and rapid processing are required - and generative AI, which requires storing large datasets for training large language models (LLMs), as well as the embeddings and vector databases that support inference via retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
These drives are aimed at very large organizations and hyperscalers that need this level of capacity muscle.
