You'll soon get 10TB SSDs thanks to new memory tech

This article illustrates how technology continues to push its boundaries as the 48-layers NAND and 3D NAND chips which aims to reduce the cost per bit and to increase maximum chip capacity. With such technologies, companies such as Toshiba, will be able to compete better with Samsung who is leading in the SSD (Solid State Drive) race and thus produce larger and cheaper SSDs. 

Competition between large electronics producers has caused many numerous breakthrough in the industry, from floppy disks to hard disks to flash drives and now solid state drives. When the ssd first came out it was expensive, however with the law of digital mass storage, the ssd too has become cheaper with increasing capacity. With bigger and faster SSDs, we may soon see the hard disk join the floppy disk in becoming obsolete as advances in technology continues to make us more efficient in the world of IT.

3D Printed Shoes: A Step in the Right Direction

This article is about the advancement of technology and 3D printing and the leaps it has gone through today. 3D printed shoes now does not require seasoning of new shoes and can also be printed down to the inch to perfectly fit one's feet. They have shone so much potential that even big names like Nike are are using them.

It is rather interesting seeing that 3D printers can even go to the extent of printing design shoes and what's to stop it at shoes? At this rate, your most comfortable shoes with your own customized designs can be printed at home whenever you want.

Taking the New Era of Computing to Healthcare

For the first time, pharmaceutical and medical equipment companies can more easily move their core business activities to the cloud. IBM Watson Health is changing the game for the healthcare industry by introducing a new cloud service, IBM Watson Health Cloud for Life Science Compliance, which enables innovators to share data while maintaining and validating full compliance with federal regulations. Watson Health Cloud offers a foundation for data sharing, collaboration and application development across the entire spectrum of the healthcare and life sciences ecosystem.

I think my article should be chosen because healthcare is one of the main issue and concern in worldwide. It is important to share the information on how technology and era of computing help to improve the healthcare system and how it benefits the worldwide in the near future. I am sure many of the people would be interested to find out and witness the growth in both the computing era and the healthcare system in the world.
