James Chon with new DVD

Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia has developed a DVD that is 1.6 terabytes of data – about 2000 films. There is nothing in your entire collection of movies on one disc.

All this is possible by the addition of fourth and fifth dimension of the optical disk. This range of wavelengths of different colors can be read at the same place. Current DVDs use a red laser, while Blu-Ray DVD of course, use the blue laser.

Researchers at Swinburne University, said that the commercial version is still five years away, even if an exclusive contract has been signed with Samsung.

But the daily need for such a large optical storage media consumers? Think of the potential price of a single disc, let alone the players. The price of Blu-Ray discs and players to avoid this technology to a large part of the DVD market.

With hard disks larger than 2TB and future films through digital download services such as Netflix, the future of DVD, Blu-Ray, in particular, may be in jeopardy. On the other hand, are always people who want a physical disc with case and artwork, so you can proudly display.
