The creation of a new magnetic molecule could pave the way to build new, stamp-sized hard drives capable of holding the ...

The ultimate speed of magnetic disk drives is at least 1,000 times slower than previously expected.. So claims a team led by physicist Joachim Stohr of Stanford's Linear Accelerator Center that ...

Hard drives made from a novel molecule developed by researchers at the Australian National University (ANU) and the ...

The computer's storage media prior to solid state drives (SSDs). Magnetic tape and disks were developed in the 1950s and commonly used together in companies for decades.

New research brings models of magnetic avalanches much closer to reality, helping physicists understand both why they happen and why they don't run out of control, wiping disk drives clean.

Hard Disk Drive. getty. In a recent article in Acta Materialia authors from Seagate, NIMS and Tohoku University demonstrated two-layer heat assisted magnetic recording. The research team combined ...

Disk vs. Drive. A disk refers to the physical storage medium itself, such as the magnetic platter in a hard disk drive (HDD) or the flash memory in a solid-state drive (SSD).

So long, hard drives, and thanks for all the storage. The very last mechanical hard drive will be sold in 2028, bringing an end to the magnetic storage era. At least, that's what Shawn Rosemarin ...
