    Will mechanical storage devices like hard drives and Bluray disc be popular for many more years?

    Yes, I feel electronics like game consoles, and DVRs like Tivo will still use mechanical hard drives and Blu-ray disc drives in many years in the future. Hard drives and Bluray disc drives are cheaper than SSD, so many devices will still use hard drives and disc drives.
