Consumer purchasable drives (reasonable price per TB, or PB in this case) with a PB of capacity is probably way off into the future like around 2040. Consumer drives haven't gotten to 100 or even 50 TB yet. Currently, 18 to 24 TB is like the maximum size that's generally accessible to the average consumer, but still a a high price unless purchased from sites that offer refurbished or highly discounted server storage components. And just because those high capacity drives are available doesn't mean they're the standard or common among computers/users. It'll likely be much longer for them to be adopted b/c right now we just don't need them (for a general user that isn't mass storing files or backups). Likely be 10 years before drives around 20TB are more commonly used or sold in systems (if file sizes get out of control and media/games don't go all digital or streamed).
I'm pretty sure the biggest HDDs are 20-something TB. SSDs and tape go bigger(not sure how the latter is used exactly). But multiple drives can be configured to appear as one.
so lunarlake is mixed results , it got better single thread but worst multithread than last gen , i 'm not sure if i would run out to get lunarlake laptop , snapdragon x and Amd AI 300 seems performs better overall , Amd wins in lots of benchmarks and in gpu its superior , then again it depends which workloads you are targeting , intel needs something much better than lunarlake at this time to win people over .
24:52 , how can core ultra 7 258v scores 20 % higher than core ultra 9 288v ???? really strange results there ,how do we trust rest of benchmarks . intel low end wins over intel high end ??? wow
at 44:49 Battery testing results - isn't the naming mixed up? The XPS 9340 should be the meteor lake, 9345 the QC and 9350 the Lunar Lake system. I know that the 9345 is for sure the QC - since I have one at home.
this whole "ARM onslaught" is 99% hype and marketing. these processors are a total joke for just about any serious real-world task, from games to CAD, etc, and x86 arch doesn't actually have a real alternative.
This is the first test I see with the three platforms on the exact same chassy and internal configuration. What a treat! Good job Intel! I wonder if Arrow Lake will maintain mostly the same level of efficiency, we need multicore performance and efficiency, too.
Stick a Meteorlake / Lunarlake on your Intel cpu labels, and while you're at it the number of cores and frequency, and ideally use different colors to differentiate the Intel architectures you're talking about, product numbers are rather obscure.
