It's because of these sort of advancements it would be a waste of money to buy new HDDVD or BluRay drives now, because they would not be able to read disks when the format becomes standard, plus we still don't know for sure which one to buy.]]>Jan 12th 2007 7:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/Jan 12th 2007 8:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/Jan 12th 2007 10:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/
"In 2005, companies such as Optware and Maxell have produced a 120 mm disc that uses a holographic layer to store data to a potential 3.9 TB (terabyte), which they plan to market it under the name Holographic Versatile Disc. Another company, InPhase Technologies, is developing a competitive format."

Hello 3.9 TB disc!!!

Go Optware and Maxell!!!

I mean imagine if movies just came on SD Card type things that had a super fast read spead and a super high capacity.

Maybe its just me but it seems way easier and better to do (im not too sure how anti-copy protection would work though)]]>Jan 12th 2007 11:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/iv been saying that for a while, put programs, movies, and yes il say it videogames on solid state, im sick of loading screens,
that and then maybe we can use the actual game cartridge to save. what a novel idea instead of paying $30 for a memory card to save, does anyone remember this concept from say the super nintendo, i just read about the release of the 64gb SSD with SATA connectors, its not long before they close in on the 200gb, 300gb, 500gb, and 1TB mark just like regular drives now]]>Jan 13th 2007 12:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/
Um, no it's not cheaper. Thats why we moved away from solid state and to optical in the first place.]]>Jan 14th 2007 10:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/Jan 13th 2007 3:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/
And it would be nice for solid state movies to come out (size and speed), and I think that it will happen once the technology really matures and prices come down.]]>Jan 14th 2007 11:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/12/ritek-boasting-ten-layer-hd-dvd-blu-ray-discs/For a 3.9 terabyte disc there are a total of 34,304,762,800,000 bits and 5,842 bits squeezed in the area of a single CD bit.

That means that a single scratch will destroy 366 and 5,842 times the data on a 250gig and 3.9 TB disc (respectively) than the data destroyed on a single CD.]]>Jan 13th 2007 1:40PM
