They offer advantages over traditional spinning hard disk drives, such as increased speed and reduced power consumption. Additionally, they are becoming more cost-effective as technology continues to advance. This study aims to understand the current state of the Solid-State Drives (SSDs) market and what trends can be expected in the industry during the forecast period of 2023-2030.
Research Methodology
This research report is based on qualitative and quantitative analysis. Qualitative data and information is collected throughout the research study, to understand the current state of the market, its key segments, expansion opportunities, and other aspects. Primary research is conducted by speaking with industry experts, partners and stakeholders, analyzing trends in market-related databases, and collecting information from industry associations.
Secondary sources such as industry magazines, books, and reliable online sources like Bloomberg, Bloomberg Businessweek, official company websites and other research agencies were also consulted to obtain the required data and information. Also, data from the previous forecast years (2017-2022) and the present years (2023-2030) were compared and analyzed to conduct market assessment and estimation.
Market sizing is established with the help of market segmentation, where the market is divided into different smaller, discrete segments. This is then further examined and estimated to arrive at a market value, which is then validated by matching it with reliable sources. The market value is calculated using the top-down approach, where the total market value is divided into the underlying factors such as application and region. The bottom-up approach is also used to estimate the market size where the individual segment value was determined first, and then these values were consolidated to arrive at an overall market value. The market duration will cover the years 2023 through 2030.
Market Segmentation
The global Solid-State Drives (SSD) market is segmented by application and region. Based on application, the market was further segmented into enterprise drives, consumer drives, and other applications. By region, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World (ROW).
Data Collection and Analysis
Primary and secondary research is used to collect data and information for this report. Primary data is collected through interviews with market experts, partners and stakeholders to gain insights into the current state of the market, opportunities for expansion and future trends.
