Chinese project that connects over 2,000 km of data centers into a single network

In the world of information technology, China continues to amaze with its new ambitious projects. One of the latest achievements is the launch of the Future Network Test Facility (FNTF), a distributed network of data centers stretching over 2000 kilometers. This is not just another data center — it’s a whole system that unites dozens of data processing centers, creating a so-called “giant computer.” The goal of this project is to provide massive computing power for the development of artificial intelligence, telemedicine, and the industrial internet. In this article, we will explore how this project will change the landscape of computing power and why it is significant for the technologies of the future.

Evolution of HDD technologies and increasing the efficiency of server solutions

While the world is rapidly shifting toward solid-state drives (SSD), Toshiba has proven that traditional hard drives (HDD) are far from obsolete. In autumn 2025, the company announced a major breakthrough — the creation of a technology that allows 12 magnetic platters to fit inside a standard 3.5-inch drive casing. This enables capacities of up to 40 terabytes (TB) per drive — a record for its class.
