holy crap

do we even need that? lol

 

[Hazar]

There was something similar to this posted awhile back. I think that one was based on nanotechnology and could hold 600 tb. :O

Actually I do need something like that. Currently I have to burn 12 seperate DVDs to fully back up my hard drive. With this I could just use 1 disc for the entire thing.

 

[booogerhead]

yeah, nano technology and holographic reading could make cd's with incredible amounts of data. i just hope that seek times go down every time the data amount goes up.

I'm very sorry, I had to do it

 

[AzzMan]

I don't get it.......

So what?
One small optical drive is so easy to scratch. Then the data is lost.
I have 9 RAID-servers at home, each going in on about 3.25TB that contains important information, they're regulary backuped on ADMs, much safer.

Halflife 10 will require 6 of them no doubt

 

[Deadline]

I wonder how much one of these DVD's will cost ... probably too much for me... let alone the burner

 

[Triggerhappy41]

the pits on the surface are getting very complicated. these disks may be very vulnerable to scratches.

Yea..that was the first thing I thought of when I saw this thread :cheers:

 

[oldagerocker]

Just imagine the amounts of warez you could fit on that

I dont think this'll come around for a few years yet, atleast not to an affordable level. DVD's will be obselete soon, whats going to happen to all our dvd movie collections?

 

[Alig]

Video's have'nt even gone totally out yet. They are out of fashion but not dead. DVD's will probably be around for a while yet and anything on any type of disc will play most formats no doubt so if these are normal size cd's then the player for them would probably support DVD format

Wonder how much they'd cost though

 

[AudioRage]

If they're that Vunerable to scratching they'll probally end up just putting them in a protective casing like floppy disks, Problem solved :cheers:
