The computer's storage media prior to solid state drives (SSDs). Magnetic tape and disks were developed in the 1950s and commonly used together in companies for decades. Tape was the primary medium ...

Toshiba demonstrated a method for using magnetic fields from microwave radiation to reverse the magnetization direction selectively in a multi-layer magnetic recording media at the International ...

HDD shipping capacity and revenue are projected to be over 6.5EB and between $25B and $35B by 2030. We project magnetic tape ...

The magnetic hard disk's tenure as a critical part of the storage technology mosaic is entering its sixth decade, and it shows no sign of ending any time soon. However, certain limitations imposed by ...

Storing computer data began with magnetic tape and then magnetic disk and eventually solid state drives. However, tape is likely to thrive well into the future, primarily using Linear Tape Open ...

Karl Paulsen On any given day, it’s safe to state that local, enterprise and cloud storage needs continue to drive the world’s total storage requirements upwards. For a while it appeared “the cloud” ...

Almost all computers today store their digital data as magnetic areas on a device called a hard disk, hard drive or fixed disk. Basically, all hard drives work the same way: Information is encoded and ...

Astronomers have detected the magnetic fields surrounding a young star for the first time, confirming models of how such stars grow. Based on the theory that the process differs from star to star, the ...
