Report: TDK Technology “More Than Doubles” Capacity Of HDDs

Potentially big news from The Nikkei: Japan's biggest business daily has learned yesterday that TDK developed a technology that can "more than double" the storage space of hard disc drives. It appears TDK has developed a special laser that heats up a hard disk's surface with a precision of a few dozen nanometers. According to The Nikkei, TDK also changed the material used in the magnetic head and redesigned its structure to expand the recording density. As a result, more data can be stored on drives of the same size.
