Samsung is reportedly preparing to wind down its SATA SSD business, and a notable hardware leaker warns the move could have broader implications for consumer storage pricing than Micron’s decision to end its Crucial RAM lineup. The report suggests reduced supply and short-term price pressure may follow as the market adjusts. Update: Samsung refutes the SATA SSD lineup demise rumor.
It wasn’t sarcastic; I meant it.
SATA is still used for spinning disks and there aren’t any NVME or SATA SSDs that touch their capacity. You won’t see M.2 platter hard drives so ignoring the mismatch of terms used by OP, SATA doesn’t have a replacement yet for non enterprise users.
Did you miss the title where it says “SATA SSD”?
