2,000 movies on one DVD-sized disc

This prototype discs that holds a capacity of 1.6 terabyte with such a potential up to 10TB discs... this is such an amazing breakthrough is a 'five dimensional' storage discs...

According to the Australian scientists who have developed this 'five dimensional' storage discs cab hold a thousands of films that will be available within five years... this method of storage will mean that this disc can hold 140 times the information than a current Blu-ray disc can store...

Scientists have demonstrated how the color and light polarization can be used to expand the storage. The report on the disc, explains how gold nanorods were used to manipulate light in order to be able to store information at different angles(five dimensional).

The Nanostructured

Professor Min Gu of Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne said. "We were able to show how nanostructured material can be incorporated onto a disc in order to increase data capacity, without increasing the physical size of the disc."
