C3D Data Storage Technology - Light Years Ahead Picture yourself walking into an interactive kiosk, putting in a credit card sized storage device, downloading a book of your choice, plugging the card into an electronic reading device, and then being on your merry way with all that data? What if people could store up to 150 gigabytes of data on one disk that worked in their home HDTV systems? Imagine if institutions could store terabytes of information on storage devices that are half the cost, twice the speed, and one-tenth the size of the best currently available storage product in the market?Products Capabilities Three-dimensional Fluorescent Multilayer Disks and Cards (FMD/C) allow the creation of a vast variety of user-oriented products with performance qualities that form a solid base for the most advanced consumer technologies, such as: FMD ROM • diam. 120 mm with 140-420 gigabytes
FMD ROM/WORM • diam. 120 mm with 70/70 gigabytes
FMD ROM/WORM/RAM • diam. 120 mm with various storage
FMD ROM • diam. 30-40 mm with 12-15 gigabytes
FMD WORM/ROM • diam. 30-40 mm with 10-13.5 gigabytes
FMD WORM • diam. 30-40 mm with 9-12 gigabytes
Super FMD ROM • diam. 120 mm with 1.4 terabytes
Super FMD WORM • diam. 120 mm with 1 terabyte
Super FMD RAM • diam. 120 mm with 1 terabyte
ClearCard ROM • credit card size with 1-20 gigabytes per cm2
Recordable (WORM) ClearCard (CC-R) • credit card size with 1-3 gigabytes
WORM = (Write Once Read Many)
ROM = (Read Only Memory)
RAM = (Random Access Memory)
Ongeveer 2 maanden geleden berichtte The Register hier al over, maar toen ging het nog over prototypes. Nu is er wat meer informatie.
Mwoh..niet slecht..1,4 TeraByte (1433 Gb) op 1 CDtje
