IDC recently published new forecasts for the worldwide hard disk drive (HDD) and solid state drive (SSD) market. While both markets were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the outlook looks good as demand for storage remains strong in multiple areas. The market for video surveillance-class HDDs will remain on track with strong capacity demand driven by growing video surveillance, machine vision, camera resolution, and customer video retention trends. The increased demand for PCs brought on by work-from-home and distance learning needs has resulted in a significantly higher forecast for client HDDs in 2021.
