    Life After Blu-ray - Tapestry Media


    (Page 3 of 4 )

    Tapestry media will work in a way that is similar to the other technology I discussed. Instead of having two lasers, this will only have one, but it will be split into two different beams. Where these two beams cross is where the data will be written and also read. Due to the difference in laser designs between the two technologies, the amount of space each disc could hold is different. Tapestry media can only hold a theoretical maximum of around 1.6 TB, about half of what HVD is capable, but still a lot bigger than anything we have available today. This doesn't look to be as promising of a technical format as HVD, but anything can happen.


    Flash Drives

    I have read that some people might be interested in seeing movies move to USB flash drives. This is even possible right now, but compared to what the movie looks like on Blu-ray, we are far from that. Current HD movies can take around 50 GB, and the next generation will need to be bigger then this.

    Seeing as how HVD can hold 3.9 TB, we would probably need, say, 4 TB of storage on a USB drive before this becomes an option. Currently we have 1 TB drives that are normal-sized hard drives, so technology is really going to need a push to get it to the 4 GB level.
