According to Sofianews’ science and technology service, citing Digiato, Chinese researchers have set a new record for storage density on diamond, achieving a capacity of 1.85 terabytes per cubic centimeter. What makes this achievement particularly remarkable is that this system, based on the atomic structure of diamond, can preserve data for millions of years. Data storage on diamond for millions of years. Previous techniques also used laser pulses to encode data onto diamonds, but the new method, with higher storage density, could store nearly 100 terabytes of data on a diamond optical disk with a volume similar to a standard Blu-ray disc; equivalent to about 2,000 Blu-ray discs. A regular Blu-ray typically lasts only a few decades, whereas a diamond disk can last for millions of years. In their research, the Chinese scientists used small diamond pieces a few millimeters in size, although they suggest that future versions of this system could take the form of larger storage disks....
