Collaborate Disseminate
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
Cigent Technology today launched Cigent Data Defense, an offering that combines existing multifactor authentication and encryption capabilities to secure sensitive data residing on solid-state drives (SSDs). Cigent Data Defense is based on an existing… Continue reading Cigent Technology Extends Firmware to Secure SSDs
In this world overflowing with data and content, external solid state drives are becoming more and more necessary. Thankfully they’re also getting faster, as demonstrated by a new SSD called GigaDrive that boasts read and write speeds of up to 2,800 MB… Continue reading Lightning-fast GigaDrive SSD boasts read/write speeds of 2,800 MB/s
A team of researchers led by professor of pharmaceutical sciences John Chaputa at the University of California, Irvine (UCI) is developing methods for storing vast amounts of data on strands of synthetic DNA that are much tougher than natural DNA. The … Continue reading Synthetic molecule delivers more robust DNA data storage
