Seagate is the first among them, and the share is either the first or the second. In the mass storage market, HDD hard disks are still indispensable for data centers. Seagate has announced a new achievement recently. The hard disk capacity they have shipped has exceeded 3ZB.

Seagate also explained in more detail that the length of a 10TB hard drive is 147mm, 300 million hard drives are connected to a length of more than 44,100 kilometers, and the earth’s equator is 40,000 kilometers long, so these hard drives are more than enough to circle the earth in total.

In addition, it took Seagate 36 years to ship the first EB storage, from its creation to 2015, the second ZB took 4 years, and it was realized in 2019. Now the third ZB capacity is only used for 2 Years, the time will be shorter and shorter in the future.
