| A multiferroic material with potential uses for cheap and quick data storage |
| Researchers at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) in close collaboration with colleagues in France and UK, have engineered a material that exhibits a rare and versatile trait in magnetism at room temperature. It's called a "multiferroic," and it means that the material has properties allowing it to be both electrically charged (ferroelectric) and also the ability to be magnetic (ferromagnetic), with its magnetisation controlled by electricity. |

| The SSD market is flooded with SandForce based drives, and in just a year’s time one would be hard pressed to review an SSD that didn't feature a SandForce controller. This highlights the sheer popularity of SandForce, but there are still additional solutions on the market. One such option is the Marvell 88SS9174-BKK2, which is an 8-channel controller that supports 500+ Mb/s speeds via SATA 6Gbps interface. |

| A quick switch for magnetic needles |
| Microscopically tiny ferromagnetic platelets exhibit a phenomenon which could be exploited in the future for particularly stable magnetic data storage: so-called magnetic vortex cores. These are needle-shaped magnetic structures measuring 20 nanometres in diameter. Five years ago, researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems (formerly the Max Planck Institute for Metals Research) in Stuttgart found a way to reverse the magnetic field needles despite their stability using only a tiny amount of energy so that their tips pointed in the opposite direction. Such a switching process is necessary to enable the vortex cores to be used in data processing. |

| M-Disc is a DVD made out of stone that lasts 1,000 years |
| The sickening click-crunch-whir of a dying hard drive. The ever-spinning-never-seeking DVD. The undetectable USB flash drive. The three telltale signs that a significant portion of your life is about to disappear into the digital ether. We've all been there. We've all wished that we'd made a second backup, or kept our optical discs out of the sun -- but we haven't, and the data is lost. So it goes. |

| Seagate and Western Digital Cast Long Shadow Over Toshiba in Battle for HDD Supremacy |
| Over the past several years, hard drive manufacturers have become an increasingly rare breed. Venerable brands like Quantum and Maxtor disappeared, Fujitsu sold out to Toshiba, and more recently Hitachi and Samsung were snapped up -- by Western Digital and Seagate, respectively. That means the Royal Rumble for HDD supremacy is now down to its final three combatants as others gravitate toward more modern solid-state counterparts. |

| Spintronics: Hitting the wall |
| The storage of data on magnetic media like hard disk drives is accomplished by orienting minute magnetic domains using magnetic fields. Although a mature technology, this approach requires relatively bulky components and complex control schemes. An alternative is to use an electrical method, where a spin-polarized electrical current is applied to rearrange magnetic domains directly using what is known as the 'spin torque' effect. However, some aspects of this approach remain unconfirmed, such as whether there is any intrinsic resistance to the manipulation of magnetic domain walls, even in a perfect nanowire. |

| The Great SSD Migration, Part1: Migrating a Windows 7 Desktop to SSD |
| As I noted in my recent article Install Windows 7 With A USB Memory Key, my home office environment is undergoing a big change of sorts this year. I'll be building the new network around Windows Home Server 2011, once that ships, and in the meantime, I'm upgrading many existing PCs from hard drive-based storage to SSD (solid state drive) storage. I'd like to discuss the beginnings of that effort now. |

| To SSD or not to SSD? |
| I frequently find myself building -- or at least plotting out -- computers at various pricing levels. Sooner or later, two questions always arise: At what price should you institute a solid-state drive (SSD)? And when you do, what should its capacity be? Especially given the recent flooding in Thailand that’s driving the world toward a hard drive shortage and driving prices up on existing drives, it seems like an ideal time to revisit both questions. |

| Victorinox to launch 1TB USB / eSATA II flash drive with built-in LCD at CES |
| Well it looks like everyone's favorite pocketknife company is readying a 1TB combo USB 2.0/eSATA II flash drive for a CES launch next week -- yes, one TERABYTE. From the looks of it, the Victorinox drive will come in black and red finishes with two bodies -- one with a scissor and knife, and a TSA-friendly version without. Besides the optional implements, both drives appear to be virtually identical, with a key ring and plastic clasp to keep the drive safely covered when not in use. |

| OCZ RevoDrive 3 x2 480GB PCIe SSD Review - Seriously Fast Storage |
| Back in June of last year, OCZ released the RevoDrive, followed up rather quickly by the RevoDrive x2. Both models represented a new way of economically bundling multiple SSD controllers behind an integrated RAID solution. This broke the mold for storage, as the vast majority of end users were stuck with the common 2.5" form factor SATA SSD (as well as trying to figure out where to put one inside their desktop case full of 3.5" drive bays). Since all desktops had PCIe slots, the Revo concept just seemed to make sense. |

| Storage space is something we all need to store the digital content of our lives. Whether it is family portraits, videos from the family vacation, forms, music, the latest movies downloaded straight from sources unknown(Not that we would do that mind you), or spreadsheets that track our monthly expenditures, the need for more storage space continues to rise as we keep more and more of our lives stored digitally. Higher definition digital video recorders and cameras plus high definition video content keep driving the need for storage space up with larger and larger file sizes. Not to mention the fact that most of us are digital hoarders, we keep everything it seems. Hard drive manufacturers seem more than willing to oblige our lust for more and more space. Seagate delivered their largest single drive to date the Barracuda XT ST33000651AS 3 Terabyte drive back in June. |

| Verbatim 8-channel USB 3.0 SSD is as Speedy as it is Sexy |
| When it comes to fixing your need for speed, nothing beats solid state drives and when it comes to external storage devices, this goes double! For their shear power and shear portability it really is hard to beat a SSD coupled to a USB 3.0 interface. Take the all new Verbatim USB 3.0 SSD Storage Solution for example. This aluminum clad Solid State Drive relies on a beefy 8-channel controller to allow for extreme small and large file transfer speeds! To be precise, the (128GB model) is rated for 190MB/sec reads and 175MB/sec writes. This certainly puts in the same league as the Kingston HyperX Max. |
