Imagine storing every single video, movie, and picture you have ever seen in your entire life on a single solid-state drive. Well, these high-end solid-state drives [30TB] can do that. But how can SSDs organize so much information? Well in this video we answer that question, and we go over the logistics involved in storing terabytes of data. This video is sponsored by KIOXIA. Visit KIOXIA's website to see their lineup of solid-state drives: www.kioxia.com This video is part of a series that intends to thoroughly explain how SSDs, and more specifically how 3D NAND works. These are the episodes in the series: 1) Organization of Blocks, Pages, and Memory Cells: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Mh3o886qpg 2) How is information written to a memory cell? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f2xOxRGKqk 3) How is information read from a cell? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtBysgPOKx4 Do you want to support in-depth engineering and technology education?
