Seagate Technology Holdings plc, a global leader in mass-capacity data storage, today announced the global channel availability of up to 30TB Exos M and IronWolf Pro hard drives. Built on Seagate’s Mozaic3+™ platform and powered by heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) technology, these drives are engineered to meet increasing demand for scalable, high-performance storage driven by the rise of AI deployments that are supplementing traditional enterprise infrastructure development. With over one million Mozaic hard drives now shipped, Seagate has reached more than just a milestone—it has marked a defining moment that underscores the strength and maturity of its breakthrough storage technology.

“Today, approximately 90% of the world’s data is stored in just 10 countries. However, data gravity is increasingly pulling networks to the edge as nearly 150 countries adopt data sovereignty requirements, and AI workloads continue to expand. Datacenters—on-prem, private, and sovereign—are leveraging AI to unlock the value of their proprietary data,” said Melyssa Banda, SVP of Edge Storage and Services, Seagate. “Our 30TB drives are designed to support these rapidly growing trends, delivering the capacity, efficiency, and resilience needed to power the AI workloads.”

Exascend, a global leader in advanced storage and memory solutions, today expanded its power-efficient PE4 enterprise SSD line with two new 7 mm U.2 models: 23.04TB and 30.72TB. Delivering up to 4.5TB of storage per millimeter of thickness, these drives delivers best-in-class capacity currently available in a 7 mm form factor while cutting typical power consumption in half. The new PE4 models enable system integrators to maximize capacity in edge servers, rugged industrial computers, on-premises AI nodes, and space-constrained data centers where every watt and every millimeter count.

Unrivaled Density and Power Efficiency
The PE4 30.72TB doubles the density of competing 7mm U.2 SSD and enables up to 737TB of flash in a single 1U server, cutting rack space requirements by 50 percent compared to 15mm drives and delivers a two-fold jump in TB-per-U efficiency.

Kingston Digital, Inc., the Flash memory affiliate of Kingston Technology Company, Inc., a world leader in memory products and technology solutions, announces today its award-winning Kingston IronKey™ D500S hardware-encrypted USB flash drive has received NIST FIPS 140-3 Level 3 validation. Designed and assembled by Kingston in California, D500S is the world’s first and only FIPS 140-3 Level 3 validated drive with a TAA-compliant and trusted supply chain.

When the IronKey D500S was being designed in 2020, the business goal was to make it a best-in-class hardware-encrypted drive with XTS-AES 256-bit encryption and the newest NIST security standard, FIPS 140-3 Level 3. But, an additional goal was to also go beyond TAA-compliance, which only verifies the legally-declared Country Of Origin (COO). The D500S was designed to ensure that all its critical components and manufacturing processes fully meet TAA and CMMC compliance requirements.

The ESD420’s magnetic design ensures a secure attachment to MagSafe-compatible iPhones or other magnetic surfaces. Whether you’re shooting on location, traveling, or attending meetings, the ESD420 allows for seamless storage expansion and instant backup, delivering an intuitive and convenient mobile storage experience.

Global memory leader Team Group Inc. today officially unveiled its latest breakthrough in industrial storage: the TEAMGROUP INDUSTRIAL P250Q Self-Destruct SSD. This innovative solution integrates both software and hardware-based data erasure mechanisms, paired with an independent destruction circuit. Engineered to meet the stringent security and stability requirements of military, industrial automation, and AI applications, the P250Q sets a new benchmark for data protection and was recently honored with the 2025 COMPUTEX Best Choice Award for Cyber Security Category.

The P250Q is equipped with a patented independent destruction circuit that enables precise data erasure at the hardware level by directly targeting the Flash IC. It is further supported by an intelligent software system with an auto-resume function that ensures data destruction continues seamlessly after an unexpected power outage, guaranteeing the complete elimination of sensitive information. Designed with real-world deployment in mind, the P250Q combines dual-mode software-hardware destruction, a one-click activation button, and multi-stage LED indicators that display real-time progress, offering intuitive yet robust data protection for high-security environments.

Silicon Power (SP) is unleashing the Hypera microSD Express memory card, its latest leap in next-generation portable storage technology, where the power of technology delivers “hyper” performance. Designed for gamers, creators, and power users alike, the Hypera boasts ultra-fast PCIe Gen 3x1 performance with blazing speeds up to 880 MB/s read and 700 MB/s write, and is available in huge capacities up to 1TB.
