the Holographic Versatile Disc is apparently the next

(next) generation of optical storage.

A HVD disc could hold as much data as 200 standard DVDs (that's 1

Terrebyte) and transfer data 40 times faster.

The Holographic Versatile Disc Alliance has been formed to flesh out

standards for this new technology which is based on holography

breakthroughs from Japan's Optware, one of the six founders of the

consortium.

Optware describes on its website how holographic recording technology

records data on discs in the form of laser interference fringes.

Other members of the alliance include CMC Magnetics Corporation, Fuji

Photo Film, Nippon Paint Co. Ltd., Pulstec Industrial Co., Ltd. and

TOAGOSEI CO., LTD.,
