Russia’s motorists more often than usual this winter dreaming of the various heating systems and components of their vehicles, and in the world of computer technology, heat is customary to dissipate into the atmosphere and be considered an enemy of man. The only attempt to adapt the cooling system supercomputer for space heating can take the initiative of IBM. It turns out that this is not the last attempt to manufacturers of computer components to use heat in good order.

As the website of Technology News, a company Hitachi has developed a technology-heated platter, which will increase the recording density of five times. In other words, if now the most succinct hard drives on the market are dvuhterabaytnye model, after the introduction of the proposed Hitachi know-how their volume will increase to 10 TB. Meanwhile, the traditional technology “perpendicular recording”, according to experts, has only a twofold increase in the potential density.

Hitachi offers a warm area of the magnetic plate in front of the recording using a laser. This allows the use of smaller magnetic particles with perpendicular orientation, in proportion to increasing areal density. Carriers of this type preserve the stability properties at room temperature, heating is only required at the time of writing. When this technology will be used in hard drives, Hitachi, not specified.
