Micron is sampling industrial grade 1.5 TB microSD card

Micron is sampling 1.5 TB microSD card. The new card i400 is designed for industrial-grade video security made using 176-layer 3D NAND. World’s first 1.5TB microSD can store up to four months or 120 days of video security media locally, enabling users to optimize what data is stored in the cloud. The high capacity eliminates the need to continuously upload data to the cloud for primary storage, a process that guzzles network bandwidth and operational expenses.3 Small businesses looking to reduce expensive bandwidth or remote sites — such as cargo ships or oil rigs with limited connectivity — can instead periodically upload data to the cloud for backup while relying day to day on i400 storage at the edge. Bringing primary storage to the edge enables real-time AI analytics and faster decision-making within smart cameras. This speed is especially crucial for critical law enforcement, public health or safety decisions. Unlike most cards on the market that are consumer-grade and have limited write capability, the i400 is designed for the video security environment with features such as: Five years of high-quality continuous 24x7 recording Ability to concurrently handle 4K video recording and up to eight AI events per second, such as object detection and classification like license plate or facial recognition Two million hours for mean time to failure Micron is sampl...
