HVD, allows for a 1TB capacity on a disc the size of a standard DVD

Here’s one for the venture capitalists in the house — Optware, the developer of the HVD and HVC (Holographic Versatile Disc, Card) formats, has announced they’re launching a division over here in America. Both mediums use Optware’s patented “collinear technology” to store data using holograms, which in the case of HVD, allows for a 1TB capacity on a disc the size of a standard DVD. Optware says the theoretical maximum capacity of the discs is 3.9TB, and the transfer rate sits at about 1Gbps. They’re the real deal; sitting on the “HVD Alliance” with Optware are much bigger names such as FujiFilm, Toshiba, Alps, and Verbatim (a.k.a. Mitsubishi Kagaku Media). The company is currently looking for venture capitalists and partners, so: buy low, sell high.
