A disk's surface is divided into concentric tracks (circles within circles), and the thinner the tracks, the more storage. The data bits are recorded as magnetic spots on the tracks in one ...
Two researchers who independently developed the neodymium magnet — used in everything from hard disk drives to automobiles — have been awarded the 44th Honda Prize. In 1982, two researchers ...
An international team of researchers led by Imperial College astrophysicist Dr. David Clements found evidence of magnetic fields associated with a disk of gas and dust a few hundred light-years ...
Currently, magnetic storage is still manufactured as hard disk drives (HDDs) but you won’t find a tape drive in a modern consumer computer. That’s not likely to change but IBM is pushing the ...
Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording (HAMR) is an advanced technology designed to enhance the data storage capacity of hard disk drives (HDDs). By using a laser to heat a small area of the disk to a ...
Physicists at RIKEN have demonstrated how ultrafast, low-power-consumption memory devices could be realized by replacing ...
Magnetic tape and disks were developed in the ... but they all gave way to USB storage (see USB drive). See optical disc. THIS DEFINITION IS FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. All other reproduction requires ...
