WD has announced its second generation My Passport SSD line, which is aimed at content creators on the move. There's up to 2 TB of solid state storage on offer, blazing fast read and write speeds, and the drive can survive a drop of up to 6.5 feet.

​Smartphones are getting ever more capable, now coming with 4K screens and multiple cameras. Happily, there are still some mobile devices that allow storage expansion via a microSD slot, making the announcement of the world's fastest 1 TB UHS-1 card very welcome indeed.​

​Just over a year after launching a 14 TB hard drive for cloud and data centers, Western Digital has added another terabyte of storage space without increasing the physical dimensions for the new Ultrastar DC HC620 HDD.​

​Earlier this year, Western Digital's HGST business arm announced a 12 TB hard drive aimed at businesses and data centers. Now the company has managed to add another 2 terabytes of storage space into a single drive unit for the launch of the Ultrastar Hs14 enterprise-class HDD.​

​When it comes to hard drive storage capacity, too much is never enough. But Western Digital's latest My Book Duo should be enough to tide most users over – for a while at least. With a capacity of 20 TB, it's the highest capacity external desktop storage unit from the company yet.

HGST has unveiled the Ultrastar He12, its latest helium-based hard drive. Cramming 12 TB of storage space into the standard 3.5-in form factor, the new drive is also faster, more energy efficient and more stable, to help businesses and data centers manage ever-increasing loads of data.​

SanDisk has a new memory card with more storage space than many computers. Parent company Western Digital announced a prototype one terabyte (TB) SDXC card at the Photokina trade fair in Cologne, Germany on Tuesday.

WD's new My Passport Wireless Pro is designed to make it easier to back up and edit work when you're on the job, by wirelessly sharing images between Wi-Fi compatible-cameras, connected tablets and laptops, and the hard drive itself.

Major hard drive maker Western Digital has announced that it is acquiring SanDisk, one of the biggest and most familiar names in flash storage.

We first caught wind of HGST's high capacity hard drives in 2012, when it claimed it could boost storage capacities by 40 percent by replacing regular air inside the enclosure with helium. The company has stayed the course, now releasing the world's first 10 TB hard drive.

Western Digital has announced a new low-cost streaming box in the form of the TV Play.

New helium-filled hard drives from HGST feature an increase in storage capacity of 40 percent and reduction in power consumption of 23 percent.
