Seagate Overcomes Superparamagnetic Limit
Longinus writes "Yahoo! News is reporting that hard drive manufacturer Seagate has "overcome a significant challenge in magnetic memory with a new technology capable of achieving far beyond today's storage densities -- up to as great as 50 terabits per square inch. Currently, the highest storage densities hover around 50 gigabits per square inch, but Seagate said its heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) technology could break through the so-called superparamagnetic limit -- a memory boundary based on data bits so small they become magnetically unstable." Perhaps the near future of storage technology lies, for now, not in nanotech or holography, but still in magnetic recording."
Why don't you post a reply instead of modding me "down?" (from his/her sig)
Because I don't think your comment is good enough that someone choosing to read at Score:X would want to read it. I moderate to help out people who only want to read the best stuff. I reply to add my 2 cents or to dispute yours. Both moderating and replying have their uses.
The masses are the crack whores of religion.
