At a materials research conference starting next week, Hitachi is expected to reveal what could be the next major breakthrough in the world of mechanical storage.
The research team - which has been working in collaboration with Japan's New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organisation (NEDO) - makes use of the self-arranging properties of certain polymers. As a result, they have successfully developed an ultra-high density patterning technology that allows accurate magnetic structures to be formed at a scale of less than 10nm.
Honda is among the few major automakers still entrenched in fuel cell hydrogen over battery-powered vehicles as an alternative fuel.
The ASUS VivoMini PC UN65H is a great compact-sized PC, but it may just need a bit more oomph to justify its rather lofty price tag.
GamersNexus: "BackBlaze just reported its annual failure rate for 34,881 drives that house 100 petabytes of data (that's 100,000,000 gigabytes). The latest report reinforces earlier data that Seagate has some of the poorest longterm endurance of all tested devices, with 3TB drives climbing to a 15% annual failure rate (from 9% at the time of last reporting). WD 3TB drives aren't immune to worsened lifespan, though, and have also jumped from 4% to 7% in annual failures."
What in the world would anyone need 24tb for.Not even all the worlds music,anime,movies,apps and porn combined wouldn't fill that.
Scratch that,there is there is definitely enough porn
Nice, now make that a 2.5" form factor, and keep the price reasonable. I would hate to see how long it wold take to format the thing, or even defrag.
2.5" = 8TB
3.5" = 24TB
I want to see the 24TB capacity on the 2.5".
we need more and more storage... sizes of movies, pictures, music, software, etc, getting bigger because of quality progress... better to have one massive storage device, than bunch of them connected together... but in the same time if it will break... try to imagine the data lost...
