Abstract
This IDC study examines the market and opportunities for SSDs. The market
opportunities are discussed in terms of units, exit factory revenue, and
terabytes shipped. Additionally, various metrics, significant trends, and
industry dynamics are analyzed in an attempt to give the reader a solid
understanding of the current situation and future outlook for the worldwide
solid state drive (SSD) market. "The SSD market is for real. Adoption will be
measured and deliberate, focusing first on market segments that can tolerate
the additional premium associated with SSDs (e.g., enterprise storage, high-end
PCs, power users). Nevertheless, IDC sees nothing but increasing opportunities
for SSDs for the next many years - even after bringing SSD technology through
the no-spin zone." - Jeff Janukowicz, research manager, Solid State Disk Drives
