Fujitsu has announced a breakthrough in magnetic recording density using a patterned media technology.
The breakthrough has been accomplished by a team of Yamagata Fujitsu Limited, Fujitsu Labs Limited and Kanagawa Academy of Science and Technology. The company has claimed to achieve a breakthrough One Terabit/Inch HDD recording density.
The company earlier announced a latest patterned media technology that was able to realize a nanohole pattern with a 25 nanometer pitch.
The company has also revealed a new development involving perpendicular magnetic recording read/write operation on random patterned media.
The latest One Terabit/Inch recording density can satisfy the ever-increasing demands of HDD space. More and more users want extra space in the same HDD. They want an increase in space without increasing the size of the disk. This latest technology by Fujitsu will now allow One Terabit/Inch recording in the future HDDs. This will also make the disks more energy efficient as they will require less power and generate less heat.
