A full DNA computer is a step closer, thanks to a new technology that could store petabytes of data in DNA for thousands or even millions of years. The system can also process data, as demonstrated by ...

Researchers have made DNA storage rewritable, overcoming one of its biggest limitations. The breakthrough could turn DNA into ...

Researchers have demonstrated a technology capable of a suite of data storage and computing functions -- repeatedly storing, retrieving, computing, erasing or rewriting data -- that uses DNA rather ...

If you have ever owned a computer, especially over previous decades, you know that the type of storage used has changed many times. Thankfully, we’re long removed from the days of hard drives taking ...

For hundreds of years, any organisation that needed to store information relied on one tried and tested technology: paper. But since the advent of computing and digital data storage, more and more ...

The Age of AI will rely on massive volumes of data that can be easily stored and retrieved—and bioscience may have an ingenious solution. A scientist examines a DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) profile on ...

Project Silica is Microsoft's attempt at turning glass, not microchips, into a feasible medium for data storage with the use ...

Since the dawn of the computer age, researchers have wrestled with two persistent challenges: how to store ever-increasing reams of data and how to protect that information from unintended access. Now ...

A zettabyte is a trillion gigabytes. That’s a lot—but, according to one estimate, humanity will produce a hundred and eighty zettabytes of digital data this year. It all adds up: PowerPoints and ...
