30000 Terabyte Hard Drive

hey i read in some windows xp magazine that scientists over in America made a 30000 terabyte hard drive by using nano technology and adding believe it or not, water to the hard drive.
how sick would it be to have a hdd that BIG

of course I'll believe it ... everything is believable in technology laugh.gif

Wow, think of all the por.....tions of things you could have on there >.> <.< >.>

Just kidding laugh.gif But that would be GREAT to have biggrin.gif So much space!

Wow, you could totally store 5% of the internet on that harddrive! Haha, if I had that harddrive i'd never run out of space.

And how quickly will this thing fail? From what I hear from friend with experience on bigger harddrives, the bigger, the faster they fail.

I think 30000TB's is a little overkill...Nice little price tag on that one though.

but still insignificant to the amount of storage rapidshare has, but how big is it? the size of a house? the size of a mouse? this may seem large now, soon we'll begin to see 2.5" disks at a capacity of mmm lets see, x decabytes?

I think that the size of hardrives will increase so much that people will just stop talking about them, because they are so big you will never run out of space, so there will be no need to talk about them. Who honestly needs a 30000 tereabyte hardrive? You would a fast computer to go with it, because it would take ages for all the files to load. And you would spend hours searching through your files, because you wouldnt need to delete anything.

Wow 30000 TB...... Wonder what I would have to put in there to fill it up. Honestly I do not have that much information that I would ever get tempted to buy that.

Besides like csp4.0 has mentioned wonder how big is it going to be? But honestly 30000 TB is not gonna be an attraction for the common man.

Maybe places that need to have a lot of records can use it. Is it vulnerable? Kubi has a good point there.

All these points will be thought over before it is sold I guess

you couldn't store even 0.0005% of the internet on that harddrive... even only RapidShare .. just think of YouTube servers how they are..

Yes 30000 TB will seriously rock, I have just plan to stuff whatever junk on that disk. Also can imagine the number of partitions I can make with this kind of huge space smile.gif

Hmm... that is a lot of space. It might come in handy for a web server. Too bad you would need an insane computer to be able to search through all that space in a timely manner. I'd rather just stick with a network of smaller HDDs. Faster and more efficient I think - considering the technology available currently. Man... I have a 20GB hard drive and I still have plenty of space. And I am running Visual Studio.NET with the whole MSDN Library. And we all know how much memory that takes up!!! Damn you Microsoft! Memory hoggers! Having a 30PB hard drive would just allow microsoft to create even more memory consuming software. Just imagine Microsoft Office 2020 - required HD space - 980TB required RAM 128TB... sad.gif

Story 1... "Add water and get 12.8 Petabyte on 1cm² "

If they would be able to make this invention work commercially you would according to Jonathan Spanier be able to create a memory that can store 12.8 Petabyte (12.8 million gigabyte) on 1 square centimeter.

Story 2...
QUOTE
A FIRM which makes a disc that can hold 60 times more data than a DVD said it is ready to release the product next year.

InPhase Technologies, based in Colorado, has developed a commercially viable version of a holographic disc which can hold 300 gigabytes of data and can be used to read and write data 10 times faster than a normal DVD.

InPhase Technologies spokesperson Liz Murphy said that unlike other technologies that record one data bit at a time, holography allows a million bits of data to be written and read in parallel with a single flash of light. This enables transfer rates significantly higher than current optical storage device.

The discs, are 13 centimetres across and a little wider than normal DVDs. They store data in a light-sensitive crystal material using the interference of laser light. A single light beam is split and passed through a semi-transparent material. This acts like a filter, changing different parts of the beam to encode bits of information

there are two completely different stories I had no problem finding... and you guys should definately read the first one. I assume that's what this thread is talking about.

I thought I get my two cents in since google nor yahoo pulled up a search result for this yet, it would seem to be at this time all fluff at this moment since the author failed to mention the name magazine or scan the article to read more into it. Now as for server hard drive space the most I have seen at any given time or heard about is running in the 500Gb - 3 TB per hard drive per rack, and depending on the size of the server rack (ball park figured) anywhere from 10-30Tb per rack. Of course with that being said I have to start looking at server technology just to get basics down for that.

Now with that being said and of course the price tag which is unknown ($10K-$20+), I would say this would have to be the very impractical for any home user and be primarily used to replace old server technology. Even then who is going to risk spending the cash for something that if damaged the right way would have to be trashed completely? However, dre would have to be correct and that this hard drive is something completely new set up (add about another $35K-$30K to it), in a which that the hard drive would #1 always be cool, #2 have the best security protocols on earth, and #3 be very hard to damage. To finish up though we need more information fro mthat article to get a better idea what this 30K TB hard drive is all about
