 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Rather interesting!!!  LINK... Impressive though it is, the very thought of losing 1.6Pb of data if(and when!) the disc fails for some reason.......well - not that nice a thought, but the media seems to be pretty robust according to the video! EDIT: Bear in mind, this is only conceptual and in the lab. You cannot buy this as a product - yet. Edited 2024-07-02 12:08 by Grogster Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

Yes! Very interesting! But remember, the whole reason you are worried about that is because hard disks fail regularly and cause the user so much pain. If you have a Petabyte of data to protect, you back it up. You very possibly put it in a mirrored storage system to both protect the data but to also provide resiliency of the data. Systems that can really use a Petabyte of data are going to have IT staff managing that data. |
