disk

has broken a major barrier in magnetic disk-drive storage density
which could eventually lead to ultra-thin computers.
[INLINE] New developments from the computer company will allow 11.6
billion bits of data per square inch to be stored on a disk drive,
enabling more information to be stored in the same amount of space.
[INLINE] The new technology will first appear in products in the year
2001. It will be used initially in 2.5 inch, non-removable disk
drives, which are mainly featured in portable computers.
