Market Overview:
The global hard drive controllers market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for data storage and rising trend of miniaturization in electronic devices. Hard drive controllers are used to control and manage hard disk drives (HDDs) in electronic devices. They enable faster data access, higher storage capacity, and improved system performance. Low-frequency hard drive controllers are used in basic applications such as commercial area, scientific area, military area, and other areas. These controllers offer low power consumption and low cost but have limited features compared with high-frequency hard drive controllers. Medium-frequency hard drive controllers are used for advanced applications that require more features than those offered by low-frequencyhard drivecontrollers .
Product Definition:
A hard drive controller is a device that manages the flow of data between the computer and the hard drive. It interprets requests from the computer and directs them to specific sectors on the hard drive. The controller also monitors the status of the drive and reports any errors back to the computer.
Low Frequency:
Low frequency is the vibration of a hard drive at less than 1/10,000th of a second. The shorter the wavelength, the lower the frequency. Low-frequency vibrations cause mechanical stress on platters and heads, but not enough to damage them; they are used in seek time calculations. Vibration sensors mounted on heads or platters measure these low frequencies and convert them into digital values that can be used to determine where data was stored previously.
Medium Frequency:
Medium Frequency (MFI) is a specification for interface between electronic devices and hard drives. It's used in HDDC controllers to provide high-speed data transfer capability required for fast drive performance.
There are no compatible or cross-compatible controller models available in the market at present.
Application Insights:
The commercial area segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing use of hard drives in data centers, cloud storage systems, web-based applications and corporate networks among other areas. Furthermore, demand for high capacity storage devices is also growing with rise in digitalization across various sectors such as healthcare, financial services and media & entertainment among others. This factor is expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period.
The scientific area segment accounted for a significant market share in 2017 owing to extensive use of hard drives by researchers working on projects related to DNA sequencing or protein crystallization at laboratories across colleges.
Regional Analysis:
The North American regional market dominated the global hard drive controllers market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for high-capacity storage devices, rising investments in R&D, and presence of major players. Moreover, growing trend of connected cars is also expected to boost the adoption of advanced technologies such as HDDs control units which would further propel regional growth.
Asia Pacific region accounted for a significant share owing to increasing penetration of cloud services and digitalization processes that have been initiated by governments across various countries including China, India Japan South Korea Taiwan Thailand Philippines Indonesia etc.
Europe was another prominent region accounting for around 25% revenue share in 2016 owing to presence major HDD manufacturers such Seagate Technology Plc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for data storage: The global data storage is expected to grow at a CAGR of 31.5% from 2016 to 2020, owing to the increasing adoption of big data and cloud-based applications. This is expected to drive the demand for hard drive controllers in the coming years.
- Growing trend of SSDs: A growing trend among consumers and enterprises is the shift from traditional hard disk drives (HDDs) to solid state drives (SSDs). This is because SSDs offer faster performance, lower power consumption, and longer life cycles as compared to HDDs. Thus, this is likely to fuel the growth of the hard drive controller market in future.
- Proliferation of IoT devices: The proliferation of IoT devices across various industries such as automotive, healthcare, retail, and logistics is fueling the growth of big data analytics worldwide. As a result, there is an increased demand for high-capacity storage solutions that can handle large volumes of data quickly and efficiently. This will create opportunities for players in the hard drive controller market over the next few years..
