1TB CD disks are coming

Mempile's schematic two photon system is called TeraDisc and is designed to store 1TB on a single disk. Each disk is built from polymethyl methacrylate which is almost entirely transparent to the specific wavelength of the laser used by its recorder. Dr Beth Erez, Mempile’s Chief Marketing Officer thinks that its ePMMA, disks can create a media with about 200 virtual layers five microns apart which each hold 5GB of data. The current prototypes can store 600–800GB per disk which is a lot of data. However Mempile boffins think that they can get this to a 1TB per 1.2mm thick disk soon.
