Pioneer’s Optical Disc can store 400GB of data

July 7, 2008 By Kunal Gangar 1 Comment


 

Pioneer Electronics has announced that they have developed something phenomenal. It’s the world’s first 16-layer optical disc which can store up to 400GB of data. That’s 25GB in each layer which is equivalent to a single layer Blu-Ray Disc (BD). It is still unclear but it seems that the new discs will be compatible with existing BD Players because of the same specification of the lens.

Pioneer will be demonstrating this piece of technology at International Symposium on Optical Memory and Optical Data Storage 2008 to be held in Hawaii from July 13.

Press Release

  • I-O Data brings 8X BD writer
  • Buffalo intros fastest BD burners
  • Samsung Blu-Ray players enter fifth generation
  • LG Electronics bring Netflix to Blu-Ray Players
