Samsung is the maker of the world’s largest hard drive. The upcoming product has 16TB of storage, which it announced at California’s Flash Memory Summit recently, according to The Independent.
Samsung is reportedly using a stacking technique for the memory within the standardly-sized product to fit more memory than in past items.

Ars notes that it probably won’t cost less than $7,800, although a price has yet to be officially announced.
