[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 893187, member: 32260"] It was not an industry leader, but analyst working for TrendForce (global market consulting firm from Taiwan): "TrendForce has long been a leader in semiconductor research and offers critical intelligence on subjects such as IC production (i.e., design, fabrication, and assembly/testing) and memory technologies (i.e., DRAM and NAND Flash). " It is obvious why they would like to throw away the HDD technology. There is also misunderstanding about the term "spinning rust". It is not a pejorative term, but simply means the traditional HDD technology which is known for decades. See for example: [URL unfurl="true"]https://etherealmind.com/network-dictionary-spinning-rust/[/URL] Yes, there are. But, these experts do not say what you say. They say that it is time to replace the HD technology and that this may happen soon (just the same as what I say). Even the TrendForce expertise you refer on, does not say that HDD will be a legacy technology in 2018, but only that 56% of notebooks will adopt SSD. Nothing that you wrote about legacy technology does confirm this statement. It would not be nice to you, if I really tried to do so. All my critic is related to misusing the term "legacy HDD" and the critic is not related to anything else in your posts. I am not saying that it is not possible to find some people (including experts) that understand this term as you do (although you did not find them yet). I am only saying that the term legacy is used often in a different meaning (see the sources in my posts), but you insist to use only one meaning, which can be misguiding for many people.
