Scientists have developed a new type of optical disc that can increase information storage capacity to the "petabit" level — 125 terabytes of data, or the combined storage capacity of about 15,000 ...
The scientists increased the capacity by leaps and bounds using an optical disc with a 3D planar recording architecture, which uses a highly transparent, uniform photoresist film doped with ...
Researchers developed a 3D optical disc capable of storing up to 1.6 petabytes of data by stacking 100 ultra-transparent ...
The Blu-ray format was officially introduced at the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show, although Sony had already developed the first prototypes in 2000. The Las Vegas trade ...
Optical storage can last a century, give faster access to data, and is backward compatible with earlier optical technology, yet disk drives and tape rule in long-term storage. Optical media is the ...
Recent announcements in magnetic tape and optical disc technology promise hefty storage media for future data archive applications. The LTO program announced its generation 14 with 576TB of native ...
Optical discs like Blu-ray are losing favor, but Sony and Panasonic don’t seem to care. The companies have cranked up the storage capacity on optical media to a stunning 3.3TB. That’s a big advance in ...
