Holographic advance aids storage

A US firm says it has set a commercial data storage record by achieving 515 gigabits (Gb) per square inch.

InPhase Technologies says it reached the level using a holographic drive, which has a higher capacity than conventional magnetic storage media.

InPhase expects to unveil its first holographic drive later this year, with products of up to 1.6 terabyte coming.
