Scientists have been experimenting with ways to use DNA as a data storage medium, but it’s difficult to retrieve and manipulate data written to it. Now a team has developed “chemical neurons” that can conduct calculations on data stored in DNA and read… Continue reading “Chemical neurons” find and process data stored on DNA
HSM allows you to store data in a secure, cost-efficient manner. Here’s what you need to know about it.

Forget invisible ink – in the future spies could be sending secret messages encoded directly into the DNA of living cells. Researchers at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) have demonstrated a “DNA Typewriter” by encoding full sentences into DN… Continue reading DNA typewriter encodes full sentences into living cells
Those old enough to have encountered punch cards in their lifetime are probably glad to be rid of their extremely low data density and the propensity of tall stacks to …read more Continue reading How to Use LEGO Bricks for Data Storage
Researchers in Japan have developed a new method for making 5-cm (2-in) wafers of diamond that could be used for quantum memory. The ultra-high purity of the diamond allows it to store a staggering amount of data – the equivalent of one billion Blu-Ray… Continue reading Two-inch diamond wafers could store a billion Blu-Ray’s worth of data
Tremendous progress has been made over the last several years to protect sensitive data in transit and in storage. But sensitive data may still be vulnerable when it is in use. For example, consider transparent database encryption (TDE). While TDE ensures sensitive data is protected in storage, that same sensitive data must be stored in […]

As with most things, nature’s data storage system, DNA, far surpasses anything we’ve created. Now, researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have doubled its already incredible storage capacity by adding extra letters to its “alphabet,… Continue reading Adding new letters to DNA alphabet doubles density of data storage
We tend to think of digital storage as being fairly permanent, but the reality is the data you’ve stored on that hard drive, flash drive or CD-ROM likely won’t survive more than 20 to 40 years. With that in mind, Harvard researchers have created what t… Continue reading Robust long-term data storage technology uses tiny drops of dye
While the data on most memory devices can be read using electric signals, an emerging technology encodes data in light, so a system can read it back just by checking if an LED is on or off. Now, researchers have developed a new device based entirely on… Continue reading Perovskite memory device transmits data in both light and electricity
By leveraging the wonder material graphene, a group at the University of Cambridge is claiming an advance in data storage that resembles more of a leap than a step forward. The new design unlocks higher operating temperatures for hard disk drives (HDDs… Continue reading High-density hard drive packed with graphene stores 10 times the data
