Breakthrough – 60TB HDD!

Breakthrough – 60TB HDD!

Seagate broke the record for storing data in a small space on Hrad Disks with a new method where they managed to compress 1TB of data on an area of ​​1 inch! Which is almost twice as much as the previous record.

Seagate has managed to compress so much memory into a small area using new heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) technology.

ExtremeTech states that HAMR technology was first demonstrated by Fujitsu in 2006.

To better understand how many sizes are involved, here is a brief explanation:

one Terabit per square inch is equal to two million bits per linear inch, in other words, each location is only 12.7 nanometers long - or about ten atoms.

In the short term, the technology will result in new 6TB 3.5-inch drives for desktops and 2TB 2.5-inch laptop drives.

Currently, the maximum capacity is 750GB for laptops, and 3TB for desktops.

In theory, however, it is possible for HAMR drives to reach 10TB per square inch, which means that in the future, about 60TB can be packed on a 3.5-inch drive

To click on the post or not?

Recently, Facebook has been flooded with " click bait " posts, and sometimes you don't know if there is something really useful behind that post or if it's just collecting clicks. There is a plugin that can partially reveal this to you. Nothing special, it's a Chrome extension called " Photo Zoom ". What does he actually do? Enlarges the image you hover over by loading the source address of the image . How can it help? Clickbait posts often "trick" users into clicking with an image (in addition to terrible headlines). They place those pictures so that only a part of them is visible on the Facebook wall and just enough to interest your potential. If you want to see the whole thing, you have to click on the link, which is their goal.
