In fact, the technology dates back to the 1950s, when IBM first constructed a server farm about the size of two refrigerators with a storage capacity of 3.75MB. By this time, HDDs were primarily being used as secondary workloads that were more capacity- and cost-constrained than primary workloads. But that’s a far cry from today.

Meanwhile, HDDs were largely relegated to secondary workloads, where factors like capacity and cost took precedence over speed. The Data Center of the Future Is All-flash.
