'Racetrack' magnetic memory could make computer memory 100,000 times faster

Monday, November 15, 2010 - 10:30 in Physics & Chemistry

Imagine a computer equipped with shock-proof memory that’s 100,000 times faster and consumes less power than current hard disks. EPFL Professor Mathias Kläui is working on a new kind of “Racetrack” memory -- a high-volume, ultra-rapid non-volatile read-write magnetic memory that may soon make such a device possible.
