Lucas123 writes "IDC just released its predictions for 2008 with regards to data storage trends and its research shows, among other things, a greater adoption of online backup and archiving services (as evident in offerings from giants such as Google), the "prevalent" use of full-disk encryption in the data center, and mainstream adoption of solid-state disk drives due to falling prices. From the story: "There are very simple situations and application scenarios where solid-state disks will be worth the risk. It does promise some great potential benefit in terms of I/O ... [and] solid state will make a significant impact on reducing heat from spindle usage in server blade deployments and to boost functionality in mobile devices." According to IDC, storage capacity is exploding at a rate of almost 60% per year."
