Personnel: Stephen Foskett

The importance of sustainability in the enterprise storage industry is often underestimated, but it’s crucial to evaluate aspects such as efficiency, power consumption, cooling, and waste to build sustainable solutions. As the dominant components in the market, Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) play a significant role, with their power consumption compared to Solid State Drives (SSDs) and contribution to overall energy use in data centers being notable. Some companies in this industry attempt to reuse or recycle old equipment, like hard drives, to minimize waste, although this effort is frequently hindered by data security concerns. To strive for better sustainability practices, attention must also be paid to the sourcing of materials, production of e-waste, and responsible disposal.
