Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Covering Digital Storage Technology & Market. IEEE President in 2024 There has been a fair amount of coverage in the last couple ...

We've covered Seagate's HAMR, or Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording, tech for HDDs, which is set to breathe new life into traditional platter-based storage by dramatically increasing the potential ...

Schematic view of (top) currently used HAMR and (bottom) three-dimensional magnetic recording systems. In the three-dimensional magnetic recording system, the Curie temperature of each recording layer ...

Laser heating generates a temperature gradient in the MnPt layer, which induces spin currents (green arrows) that are injected into the FePt layer. These spin currents generate spin torque, which ...

Seagate hit another milestone in its long-running journey of developing heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) hard drives when it signed an unnamed cloud service provider. The storage device company ...

Driven by an explosion of data creation and retention needs, hard-disk-drive (HDD) storage capacities and data-center densities are rapidly expanding thanks to a technology called shingled magnetic ...

We've been following Seagate's HAMR or Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording storage tech for a while now, with this new take on the traditional HDD created to deliver customers the highest capacity and ...
