1TB SDXC card (WORLD'S FIRST EVER LARGEST STORAGE CAPACITY SDXC CARD).
SanDisk which was acquired for a whopping sum of $19 billion by hard drive manufacturer Western Digital on May 12, 2016, never fails to impress us and has emerged with the world's first 1TB SDXC card.
In 2006, SanDisk released its first ever 64MB SD card. In 2014, the company continued its wild innovations and released the 512GB Extreme Pro SD card which doubled the capacity of the Lexar 124GB card in just two years. This year, 2016, they continue in history, and have released the 1TB SDXC card (WORLD'S FIRST EVER LARGEST STORAGE CAPACITY SDXC CARD).
Dinesh Bahal, Vice President, Product Management, Content Solutions Business Unit, Western Digital, in a statement said, "Showcasing the most advanced imaging technologies is truly exciting for us. Sixteen years ago we introduced the first SanDisk 64MB SD card and today we are enabling capacities of 1TB. Over the years our goal has remained the same; continue to innovate and set the pace for the imaging industry. The SanDisk 1TB SD card prototype represents another significant achievement as growth of high-resolution content and capacity-intensive applications such as virtual reality, video surveillance and 360 video, are progressing at astounding rates.”
Who would have thought a 1TB storage capacity will be embedded in such small card? Impressive innovation!!!
Price for the 1TB card is currently unknown, but going by the price of the 512GB card which sold at $275, the 1TB shouldn't offer any less. It is note worthy to mention that the SanDisk 1TB SDXC card is still in the prototype stage and there’s no set release date.
