Toshiba demonstrated a method for using magnetic fields from microwave radiation to reverse the magnetization direction selectively in a multi-layer magnetic recording media at the International ...

Karl Paulsen On any given day, it’s safe to state that local, enterprise and cloud storage needs continue to drive the world’s total storage requirements upwards. For a while it appeared “the cloud” ...

Push two magnets together and you'll set off an avalanche of activity, forcing atoms on each magnet to align their polarity with the intruding magnetic field. It may sound like a party trick for ...

Almost all computers today store their digital data as magnetic areas on a device called a hard disk, hard drive or fixed disk. Basically, all hard drives work the same way: Information is encoded and ...

New research brings models of magnetic avalanches much closer to reality, helping physicists understand both why they happen and why they don't run out of control, wiping disk drives clean. Push two ...
