WEKA packs 1.1 exabytes into a single rack with new pod and compression

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from TechRadar ·

WEKA announced WEKApod 3, a storage pod that crams 1,800 Micron 245.76TB SSDs into a 56U rack, claiming 1.1 exabytes of raw capacity. The system uses NeuralMesh 6 software and a decades-old compression technique to maximize density. It targets AI and HPC workloads requiring massive, fast storage.

Meridian48 take
