The global SSD shortage is reshaping data infrastructure, storage planning, and enterprise scale workloads. In this episode of Data Unchained, we talk with storage journalist Chris Mellor of Blocks and Files about the causes behind the NAND supply crisis, the pressure on GPU pipelines, the rise in flash pricing, and the limited fab capacity that will continue into 2027. We explore the future of disk technology, the growth of vector driven data, the increasing demand for high bandwidth memory, and the expanding role of hybrid cloud strategies as organizations struggle to secure fast storage. Chris explains how metadata rich automation, smarter tiering, high bandwidth flash, and new caching approaches can help enterprises navigate shortages, optimize existing resources, and prepare for the next twelve months of accelerated change across the storage and compute ecosystem.
