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.

Our increasingly digitized world has a data storage problem. Hard drives and other storage media are reaching their limits, and we are creating data faster than we can store it. Fortunately, we don't ...

Scientists have developed an experimental “DNA cassette tape” to address the global data storage crisis. This new technology ...

Shakespeare’s entire catalog of sonnets and eight of his tragedies, all of Wikipedia’s English-language pages, and one of the first movies ever made: scientists have been able to fit the contents of ...

Holding 100 metres of the DNA tape, the cassette is able to hold 36 petabytes of data – equivalent to 36,000 terabyte hard ...

A traditional cassette tape holds roughly 10 to 12 songs on each side, but 328 feet of this DNA cassette tape could hold the ...

Traditional storage media like silicon chips and magnetic tapes are hitting their capacity limits. DNA offers a promising ...

By combining the information storage capabilities of DNA with a design inspired by a cassette tape, researchers have created ...

DNA data storage is a big deal. Partly, it's because we're based on DNA, and any research into manipulation of that molecule will pay dividends for medicine and biology in general -- but in part, it's ...

DNA is a very dense storage medium and storage researchers have tried to use it for data storage, but without much success, because it’s hard to find info within DNA and read times are slow. Jiang's ...

With the exponential growth of digital data and the limitations of conventional silicon-based storage and computing technologies, bio-inspired, DNA-driven computing and information storage has emerged ...

While practical DNA storage remains elusive, a team of Chinese researchers has developed a DNA cassette tape that could theoretically store every music track ever recorded.
