Solid state drives continue to dominate sales in Q2 2023, showing signs of the end of the hard drive era. In fact, the industry is seeing quarterly growth in SSD shipments from 99.4 million to 99.6 million units.
Buyers prefer SSDs 47% more often than hard drives. This comes as no surprise since SSDs are now used in everything from gaming and consumer to commercial.
Samsung is currently the undisputed leader in SSD production. The Koreans released in the second quarter of this year 34.9% of all SSDs on the market and 24.9% of the total volume of solid-state drives for the year. In second place is Western Digital with 18.8% and Kioxia with 12.6%.
