Holographic Storage?

Holographic Storage?
Three dimensional storage? To hear it, many people begin to envision the return of the file cabinet. Yet thanks to holographic technology, millions of pages (that's right - pages) of information can be stored on what looks like hyper-driven floppy disks. InPhase Technologies, teaming up with Maxell USA, is one step closer to releasing the world's first holographic storage unit. The storage reader, no larger than a desktop computer, houses a holographic read/write head, data channel and electronics. This puppy's fast - 407 nanometer laser records 1.3 million bits of data. It's also robust - one 300 GB disk holds the equivalent of 462 CD ROMS worth of data.
