Jakarta - Pretty soon, computers will be able to save data to your hard drive is clear like a crystal made of glass. Scientists in Britain developed a new way of storing information in memory crystal inspired from the movie Superman.
Martynas Beresna and his team at Southampton University using a laser to rearrange the atoms in a piece of glass, then turn it into a new type of computer memory.
They claim the memory storage made of glass is much more stable and resilient than other types of hard drive memory is commonly used today. This excess could be a solution given the current meori hard drives have an average age of a limited and vulnerable to damage due to humidity or high temperatures.
Reported by the Telegraph and quoted on Monday (8/15/2011), the memory made of glass can withstand temperatures up to 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit, water resistant, and can last up to thousands of years without losing its stored information.
The data or information contained therein, can be written, erased or rewritten into the molecular structure of glass using a laser.
This process changes the way light travels through glass, creating a vortex that polarized light which can then be read in the same way as the data is delivered fiber optics.
Memory is like a crystal glass made from the existing memory in the film Superman. Inside there are video recordings and other data stored both parents. When inserted in a player device, Superman can see all the data in it.
"Currently we are only able to store data equivalent to the contents of one piece of Blu-ray that is up to 50 GB. The size of data storage made of glass is smaller than the screen smartphones," says Martynas.
He said, storage is developed will be very useful for companies or organizations that store large amounts of archive files.
"Today, companies generally have to back up their files every five or ten years Karen hard drive memory is usually short-lived," he concluded.
