InPhase Technologies
InPhase Technologies is a technology company developing holographic storage devices and media. InPhase was spun out from Bell Labs in 2000. Their technology eventually promises terabyte storage. In May 2008[1] the company was due to release their first reader, tapestry 300r, offering a storage capacity of 300 GB, with transfer rates of 20 MB/s in read write mode. However, the product was not released by this target date, marking the third time the company failed to release the reader on-time after previously setting release dates of late 2006, and then February 2007.[2] As a result of these delays, InPhase was forced to cut a number of its workforce, and is now targeting a December 2008 release date for the drive.[2]
Future models are promised to reach 120 MB/s with capacities of 1.6 TB.[citation needed]
InPhase Technologies currently holds the record for "highest commercial data storage" by achieving 515 Gbit per square inch.[3] of media. Most recently the company broke the 1 terabyte benchmark.[citation needed]
