100 DVD's on 1 disc
When the new data storage standard that GE is working on will get to mass production, the world of data storage will never be the same. Think about it - 100 DVD's worth of information stored on one disc.
Sure, discs aren't the best media to store data on - the are susceptible to rust and decay, and have a lifespan of only a few years, but as a temporary or short term data storage - they do wonders.
Just thinking about the scale - 100 DVD's on one disc, is astounding.
That is, of course, only as long as it will reach mass production any time soon. With the new standards for SD that are due to arrive in a year or two (according to some reports), and allow huge amounts of data storage on a single card, discs as storage devices will have a hard time, to say the least.
