Research abstract

The Stationary Optical Disk Drive (SODD) is a new means of addressing high density optical disks with solid state scanners. The system will have random access times 100 times faster than current optical and magnetic disks, and high data transfer rates for the most demanding applications. The use of removable media keeps the cost per megabyte low. While the SODD will find insertion in a much broader market, since desktop computing power is increasig at a revolutionary rate and will demand cheap, high performance disk drives. This disk drive enters an installed market in excess of a billion dollars per year and is intended to capture the top 10% of that market.
