While technology is getting better at cramming more and more data on discs and drives, there's another whole dimension that's essentially going unused. Holographic storage devices could make use of ...

A reader took issue with a recent post of mine on GE’s holographic storage breakthrough. I thought his response made some good points, so I got permission from him to reproduce it in full: Jon Stokes ...

Microsoft is looking beyond flash storage and hard drives to handle the seemingly unstoppable demand for cloud storage. Yesterday at its Ignite conference, the company announced Project HSD (via ZDNet ...

During that time, hardware advances carried out independent of holography have made holographic storage more achievable. These include such improvements as CMOS sensor technology, development of ...

Every now and then, it’s nice to sit back, drink in hand, and contemplate the future. When done in the wrong environment of course, this often leads to job loss or worse, but under the right ...

Information storage media company Maxell has said it will launch its first holographic storage products in September 2006. The first removable drive will have a capacity of 300GB and a throughput of ...

Holography is an imaging technique in which an object is imaged such that it appears three-dimensional (3D) when viewed later. This is the fundamental technique for producing holograms that are ...
