@thorzo90 Most likely when the price:capacity ratio becomes a bit more desirable. Right now, HDDs cost about $.20-.25/GB (sometimes even less if you buy them in huge capacities), but, even at their largest capacities, SSD's still run about $1.75-2/GB at the inexpensive end. Most consumers don't want to pay upwards of $1,000 for a 512GB SSD when they can find a 500GB HDD for $60, or even more so, a 1TB HDD for $80, 2TB for $140, and a whopping 3TB for around $210.

If I could make a quick correction: the video stated that you could get a 2TB HDD for $300 in 2009. However, even when the first 2TB HDD was released in 2009, the original price was $219. (And now, 3TB HDDs are about that and 2TB's are only $120-170, depending on their RAID configuration and whether they are USB 2.0/3.0/eSATA).

SSD and hybrid disc will replace the hdd in the future, but when?
