Microsoft develops ultra durable glass plates that can store several TBs of data for 10000 years::Project Silica’s coaster-size glass plates can store unaltered data for thousands of years, creating sustainable storage for the world
Awesome. So Microsoft, does this mean I’ll finally get access to the other 3TB of OneDrive storage that I pay for on my family plan? Or do I still have to create random accounts that would simulate other family members in order to use it?
Sure, if you don’t mind storing stuff and then never reading them again.
To be fair, I have a lot of stuff I am storing that I have no realistic reason to ever need or want to read again as it is.
Never read again? These can’t be modified, but they can be read. After all, it’d be pretty useless to store data on a medium than can never be read.
This plan it built under the assumption that more people will be using one drive. The value of scrapped data isn’t just quantity, but number of people.
