Japan&#8217;s ALPS Technologies has claimed that it will present a new type of thin-film recording head at a private trade conference this May &#8212; called TuMR &#8212; that will enable perpendicular hard disc drive recording at an unparalleled 170 GB\/in2 , compared to the paltry 132 GB\/in2 that Seagate is able to muster today. Hitachi had previously announced a technology capable of 230 GB\/in2 , but so far hasn&#8217;t produced the goods, so ALPS (and also Western Digital, it would seem, for whom they supply parts) has a golden opportunity to step up and take the coveted density crown.
