Soon, pack 10 terabits on tiny device

A new discovery may open the way for the development of next generation data storage devices with capacities of up to 10 terabits (10 trillion bits) per square inch - vastly enhancing storage on much smaller data devices.Imagine storing thousands of songs and high-resolution images on data devices no bigger than a fingernail.An ultra-smooth surface may be the answer, according to a discovery by the researchers from Agency for Science, Technology and Research's (ASTAR) Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE) and the National University of Singapore (NUS), reports the journal Nature reports.
