Atomic Holographic Nanotechnology will Set the Pace for the Future

Magnetic Technology

Hard Drives of Today will reach the superparamagnetic effect limit according to the premier storage professionals IBM , in the next few years not due to write densities, but the inability to read decreasing S/N EMF fields from the ferromagnetic materials with increasing write bit densities, even if some ingenious method is found like Toshiba 1 Terabit/sqin. concept which has since dropped its density prediction back to 500 gbits/sq.in. is still 2D serial read/write.

Another questionable technology is the HAMR (heat assisted magnetic recording) that NSIC member organizations Seagate Technology , Advanced Research Corporation, MEMS Optical, Inc., Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Arizona and the NSIC itself have started developing.

America's Seagate "Quinta/Terrastor" (now the reinvented HAMR Technology) is a Magno-Optical Drive Technology similar to Matsushita Electric Industrial Co, Ltd and Canon Inc. Japan , TerraStor , have found that over 10 years of research and ( $125 million Quinta Patents and $ 250 million for Terrastor Patents) plus a ridiculous amount of research funds hasn't put them any closer using a laser head that doesnt overheat or meltdown permanetly disabling the disk drive. For Seagate's HAMR to rewrite a limited number and read many times reflected 2D polarized photons of a 50 terabits/sq.in maximum data bit densities and having slow SERIAL READ/WRITE data transfer rates with only a 5 year plus shelf life media should doom this product.

IBM New State of the Art AFC millipede media or University of Arizona's Nanotechnology CONTACT are slow devices that have long term media interface reliability issues.

IBM's vertical magnetic recording concept the "Pixie Dust Drive" and Hitachi or Read Rite / Fuji and MAMMOS are Derivative Technologies from a Vertical Recording Media Creation of Michael E. Thomas in 1983 and Colossal feels the Pixie Dust / Vertical / Perpendicular Magnetic Recording Technology should be shelved and not Sold to the World as NEW Revolutionary Nanotechnology.

Princeton University has just invented the self induced micro plastic explosion device, called plastic memory. What happens when gases in a closed container are not allowed to out gas, extreme pressure buildup and cracking of the device leading to failure of data reliability.

Japan's Fuji Films latest Nano Particle Direct Contact Recording Storage Tape Products or Fujitsu's 100 Gbits/sq.in. HDD or NanoMagnetics from ( Cambridge University, UK ) or University of New York's CONTACT recording are STILL 2 D AREA SERIAL READ AND WRITE data transfer bandwidth of 2 D gigabits/sec versus 3D Volume petabits/sec.
