The work carried out by a team at the University of Science and Technology of China achieved a new record for storage density in diamonds, at 1.85 terabytes per cubic centimeter.
Finally a digital storage solution that will last potentially millions of years. Anyone want to guess why it will never see any meaningful adoption?
Writing to diamond would be a bitch, and diamond is artificially scarce?
Manufacturing diamonds at scale for writing data would, uh, be problematic for certain . . cartels. I mean, industries. Yes.
Cool. I don't care too much about the info density to be honest, but the staying power is amazing.
