Microsoft celebrates hard drives: eternal storage arrives in "Pyrex".
The research phase of Project Silica has officially concluded with a radical change: it no longer requires expensive and rare crystals. It now works with borosilicate glass (like kitchen utensils), eliminating cost as the main barrier to its actual use.
The keys:
Capacity: Up to 5TB on a coaster-sized plate.
Indestructible: Resists fire, water, magnetism, and the passage of time.
Immortal: Data lasts over 10,000 years without degrading.
Efficiency: Zero energy consumption to maintain stored information.
Gone are the constant maintenance and data loss. The ultimate archive of humanity is made of glass.
