1TB thumbdrive

Nanotechnology is changing the way we define BIG. We know that flash drive are a type of solid state drive and it is a fast and efficient way to store information and to transfer them. However the biggest thumbdrive that we have is a 32GB thumbdrive and it is relatively expensive ranging from $35-60. While 32 GB of space is considered very big, scientists at Arizona State University have created a new type of solid state drive using a new kind of nanotechnology which makes it more efficient that a flash drive and reduce it cost to about 1/10 of that a flash drive cost.

The scientist said that this type of new solid state storage medium will use nano tech to charge copper particles on the molecular scale using the copper atoms to store the data thus making it more efficient then how flash drives store information now which stores on record information by charging the cells.

The first cell that would power this technology will come out this April. If this technology works, i can throw away my harddisk and buy a solid state drive using this technology at a cheaper price.

Comprehending the thumbdrive's ability to store 1000Gb is crazy :S we will see what happens later
