A NanoMagnetics Ltd Press Release of August 1, 2002 announced the doubling of nanoparticulate storage density for commercial computer disk drives to just over 12 Gb/sq.in. They believe their patented protein-based technology for developing advanced magnetic materials will eventually enable terabyte computer disk drives. A Nanodot post of July 13, 2002 reported the work of other researchers aiming for terabit per inch storage densities using nanostructured magnetic materials.
