Moby Dick on a DNA strand: Harvard encodes data in life’s language
Wyss Institute researchers have broken all previous records for DNA storage, encoding 700 terabytes of data into a gram of DNA. Why DNA storage? It's incredibly dense and resilient, but it's not fast (at least not yet), which would make it most useful for archival storage.

Researchers Cram 700 Terabytes of Data Into One Gram of DNA [Science]
We've known DNA could be a viable solution for data storage for a while now, but Harvard researchers have just discovered how wildly efficient it could really be by fitting 5.5 petabits, or 700 terabytes, of data into just one gram ... Read Post

Harvard cracks DNA storage, crams 700 terabytes of data into a single gram
A bioengineer and geneticist at Harvard's Wyss Institute have successfully stored 5.5 petabits of data -- around 700 terabytes -- in a single gram of DNA, smashing the previous DNA data density record by a thousand times. Read Post
