What Are Bursting Discs?
Bursting discs are storage devices that record data by creating holes on a rapidly rotating disk surface.
Data is identified based on the size and position of the holes, allowing for faster data access compared to magnetic disks. They are primarily used in data centers and cloud services, excelling in scenarios where fast data access is required, such as big data analytics and AI learning. These discs are made of materials like aluminum or glass, and data is identified through laser drilling and reading heads.
Their features include high-speed data access, large capacity, and durability. However, caution is needed due to the potential for disk damage during laser drilling, damage from vibration or impact, and heat generation from laser irradiation.
