 A TeraDisc could hold up to 250,000 high-resolution pictures, or 40 HD movies

At a CES conference in Las Vegas in 2007, one company demonstrated the ability to store half a terabyte of data on a DVD disc that is made of a polymer similar to Plexiglas.

A TeraDisc could hold up to 250,000 high-resolution pictures or 40 HD movies.

Israel-based Mempile Inc. said its TeraDisc DVDs will offer 1TB of storage for consumers in the next few years -- and corporations will be able to use the technology to permanently store data at a fraction of the price of spinning disk and tape, according to Dr. Beth Erez, Mempile's chief marketing officer. Today's high-definition DVDs hold a maximum of 50GB in formats such as HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc.
