Luckily for us, Microsoft is developing the data storage of the future<\/strong>. It’s much more durable and straightforward than any hard drive. According to the company, for each disk, they can store 3,500 movies or 1.75 million songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microsoft Research, the R&D branch of the Redmond software giant, is experimenting with storing vast amounts of data on glass plates in a futuristic initiative called “Project Silica.” If successful, it could be used to store information for thousands of years without degradation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
