Loads of data...

Fujitsu claims its latest development in storage technology could increase the amount of data held on a hard disk by up to three times.
It has achieved the increased performance by designing new recording heads. Normally these record fluctuations in the electrical current in parallel with the disk plane, but Fujitsu has up-ended this, meaning current fluctuations are registered perpendicular to the disk plane.
This means more information can be squeezed onto the disk without having to decrease the amplitude of the signal.
Hard drives with the technology will be able to store up to 360 gigabytes of information.
Fujitsu said it will have the new technology in production within two to four years
