Higher disk capacity on lower surface

1990/03/01 Elhuyar Zientzia Iturria: Elhuyar aldizkaria

IBM engineers have achieved a capacity of 1000 MB on a 6.45 cm2 floppy disk. This new record is 30 times higher than the previous one. The new discs are aluminum but have a cobalt surface. The reading head also has cobalt surface. In addition, these heads produce less wear than conventional ones.

The production of these discs will not start yet. Therefore, they will have to spend a few years to see this new product on the street.
