UK-based startup SPhotonix was formed in 2024 to commercialize what's known as 5D optical data storage, often referred to as "memory crystals." Essentially, the technique encodes ...

A full DNA computer is a step closer, thanks to a new technology that could store petabytes of data in DNA for thousands or even millions of years. The system can also process data, as demonstrated by ...

Structured data is a small and declining percentage of business information. But it is critically important for almost all organisations. Structured data volumes are growing more slowly than stores of ...

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Researchers have demonstrated a new technique that can store more optical data in a smaller space than was previously possible on-chip. This technique improves upon the ...

IT executives face a constant barrage of "new and improved" product claims. But data storage has changed more in the last 10 years than in the prior 25, and the rate of change is accelerating: We'll ...

In a bid to create smaller, more powerful computers and smartphones, researchers at New York University have come up with a new digital data storage technique they've dubbed "racetrack memory." There ...

If you have ever owned a computer, especially over previous decades, you know that the type of storage used has changed many times. Thankfully, we’re long removed from the days of hard drives taking ...

Quantum computing will process massive amounts of information. Workloads could include diagnostic simulations and analysis at speeds far greater than existing computing. But, to be fully effective, ...

Yes, size matters when it comes to data storage but remember to take into account what you'll be doing with it and whether it needs to be portable.

So you’re running out of storage on your laptop or desktop. Or your PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo Switch console. Er, or phone or tablet. Welcome to the club. Now that your world has become ...
