A stack of CDs DATA containing all the world's data would reach past the moon. World's data storage capacity today EXABYTES 295,00000 GB 94% 58% From 1986-2007, worldwide computing capacity grew 58% per year. As of 2007, almost 94% of data is in digital form. THE FUTURE OF DATA STORAGE Solid State Drivers (SSDS) • Uses flash memory chips and a controller. • No moving parts (unlike typical hard drives). - Won't fail like regular hard drives. -Will degrade over time. • Less power usage, faster data access, better reliability. • Commonly used in laptops, desktops, and portable devices. SSD Hard Drive: Perpendicular Storage • The magnetization layer on the disk aligns perpendicular to the surface. • Bits of data can be stored closer together. • Meaning more data in less surface space. • Potential capacity of 1 terabit (128 GBs) per square inch - Current capacity = 400 GB per square inch Cassette Storage • Ultra-dense tape drives developed by Fuji Film and IBM. - Magnetic tape coated in barium ferrite particles • Ist prototype = 4 square inches and less than 1 inch thick (10 sq cm by 2 cm) • Slower than hard drives. • 35 terabytes data storage = about 35 million books - Developers are working to squeeze 100 terabytes into each cartridge. Holographic Optical Storage • 500 GB data stored in a standard DVD-sized disc. • Embeds data onto 20 blue-laser readable layers, coated in plastic. - DVDS and Blu-ray discs use only 4 layers of data storage. • Encodes data using thousands of tiny holograms (3D data patterns). • Data can last 30+ years. DNA Storage • Stores and transports human-made data, encoded as DNA molecules. • DNA remains stable for long periods of time with minimum care. - Does not need a power supply to maintain its integrity. • More than 100 million hours of high-def video can be stored in one cup of DNA. • 1.5 milligrams of DNA (the weight of a small mosquito) can store one petabyte (100 million gigabytes) of data Bacteria Storage • Artificial DNA with encoded information that can be added to the genome of common bacteria. - Thus preserving the data - Scientists have successfully attached the phrase "e-mc2 1905" to the DNA of bacillus subtilis, a common soil bacteria. • Up to 100 bits of data can be attached to each organism. • Can create multiple backup copies -Creates a new copy of the data every time it reproduces itself. - Creates extra copies of the data by inserting it in different places in the genome. Carbon Nanoballs • Using metallofullerenes as miniature data storage devices. - metallofullerenes = carbon "cages" with embedded metallic compounds Molecular Memory • Integrated circuit using molecules, capable of containing trillions of electronic devices. - Tiny supercomputers or memories with a million times the storage capacity of today's semiconductor chips. • An HP patent describes a memory device built from crossbar arrays of nano-wires sandwiching molecules to act as on/off switches. Quantum Storage aka Spintronics • 1 bit of information is encoded into a property of a quantum mechanical system, the -Store tiny amounts of data for a matter of seconds - An "up" or "down" orientation signifies a 1 or 0 • Prototype = the giant-magnetoresistive (GMR) sandwich structure Used as a read head and a memory-storage cell • Boosts capacity and lowers power use in memory and storage devices. • Electrons have only held an "up or down" orientation for 100 picoseconds (one trillionth of a second) - Not enough time for a compute cycle - Transistors cannot complete a compute function. - Data storage is not persistent. - Latest developments extend this to 1.1 nanoseconds, the time it takes for a 1 GHz processor to cycle. of an electron Sources: http://gizmodo.com/5497512/the-future-of-storage http://gizmodo.com/5953682/the-future-of-data-storage-is-cassette-tape http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21628875.500-cassette- tapes-are the-future-of-big-data-storage.html http://www.dailytech.com/GE+Makes+Holographic+Optical+Storage+Breakthrough/article14991.htm http://www.gereports.com/ges-mega-storage-breakthrough-500-gb-on-one disc/ http://www.genewscenter.com/Press-Releases/GE-Breakthrough- in-Micro-holographic-Storage-Technology-Supports-500-Gigabyte-Disc-at-Blu-ray-Speed-3245.aspx http://mozy.com/infographics/the-past-present-and-future-of-data-storage/ http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nature11875.html http://theconversation.edu.au/dna-data-storage-100-million-hours-of-hd-video-in-every-cup-11777 http://blogs.computerworld.com/data-storage/20865/future-data-storage-revealed http://www.livescience.com/1355-technique-stores-data-bacteria.html http://phys.org/news171041009.html http://www.technologyreview.com/news/401000/molecular-memory/?a=f http://phys.org/news183124930.html http://www.physics.umd.edu/rgroups/spin/intro.html http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9230150/IBM_claims_spintronics memory_breakthrough http://www.smartplanet.com/blog/thinking-tech/what-is-the-worlds-data-storage capacity/6256 http://consumer.media.seagate.com/2012/06/the-digital-den/how-much-data-is-generated-in-a-minute/ Brought to you by: OSECURE DATA RECOVERY www.SecureDataRecovery.com 800-388-1266 295 DOX
