Comment on DNA: SSDs of the future will be radically differentparent

Comments

Well, I have a phd in biophysics and have worked with DNA across my 30 year career- as well as with massive storage systems. I'm quite familiar with the technology. Offline HDDs last a lot longer than 10 years.

A single data center can't be stored in 5 grams of DNA- or even if it could, it would be far slower to access, and would require significant infrastructure to maintain.
