Hello Readers,
These last couple of weeks have been a bit tough ones a lot has happened in my life but i know you all are not interested in that and so whenever i'll get a chance, i'll post. I apologise for being absent and will recover for it soon.

Today I have picked a topic that has been requested by a few people though many of you would be knowing about it, I am sure that you'll pass this post to those who don't know about it.

HAMR - Heat Assisted Magnetic Reader

HAMR HDD

About a year ago or so, we had a person who visited our school an demonstrated about HAMR technology. He worked for SEAGATE and well i'll put his name whenever i could recall. The facts that he disclosed were astonishing but i recently witnessed it. A few friends of mine having a 1tb External HDD complained that their HDD crashed. This was may be because the recent advances in hard drive technologies suggest that the current perpendicular magnetic recording technology(PMR) may be hitting its limits in the not too distant future. Infact, Seagate agrees that the end is in sight and that the industry will have to transition to a new approach that will allow hard drive manufacturers to continue on the path of massive storage improvements.
Well this is where HAMR technology comes to play a vital role. While PMR may hit just about an aereal storage of 1 Tb/inch^2, heat assisted technology will take the industry into the range of 50 Tb/inch^2.
