- Kioxia and Dell presented a 157-petabyte raw-capacity storage rack on November 11.
- The configuration combines 640 LC9 enterprise SSDs with 16 Dell servers in a standard rack.
Kioxia said on November 11 that it had worked with Dell on a storage configuration combining 640 LC9 enterprise solid-state drives across 16 Dell PowerEdge R7725xd servers. The companies presented the setup as a standard 42U rack with 157 petabytes of raw flash capacity, according to DrivesHero.
Dell rack marks enterprise milestone
The configuration is aimed at enterprise storage rather than consumer upgrades. Each LC9 drive offers 245.76 terabytes, while the rack combines high-density flash with Dell server hardware for AI infrastructure and other large-scale workloads.
The headline capacity is raw storage. Usable capacity depends on protection, system configuration and the workload, so the announcement is a product milestone rather than a direct indication of consumer pricing or company-wide profitability.
What investors watch next
Kioxia's next test is whether the enterprise-storage milestone leads to customer deployments, qualification activity and sustained demand for high-capacity NAND. Production execution and pricing will remain important as memory suppliers expand capacity for AI-related workloads.
