WATERPROOF GLASS DISK


    Hitachi invents waterproof glass 'disk' that can store data forever:

- Hitachi has printed data upon a 2 square centimeter piece of glass that is waterproof, fireproof, and capable of securing any kind of data well into the future.

- Developed by Hitachi, the technology prints a binary series of dots upon a sliver of quartz glass which can then be easily read with a common microscope.

- It sounds simple enough, and that is exactly the point – the data can be easily accessed no matter what the future technologies of the digital age bring.

- Even better, the data is safe from fire, chemicals, and water – almost anything, except perhaps a hammer.?
