Silicon Valley

Chapter 149 Micro Hard Disk (Second)

The first project in the Williams lab was the development of the java programming language, what was the second project? Henry thought about it and decided to choose wifi. After wifi is developed, Cisco can launch wireless routers that shake the world, and Silicon Valley Electronics Group can launch wireless laptops! ! !

By then, with wifi technology, Silicon Valley Electronics Group's laptops will crush all laptops on the market!

Not just wifi, but thinner and faster! ! !

Silicon Valley Electronics Group has been accumulating and making progress. In fact, with the current strength of Silicon Valley Electronics Group, it is indeed possible to develop computers, but the things it produces cannot meet Henry's requirements!

"Silicon Valley Electronics Group's products are by no means mediocre!" This is what Henry said to the company's executives at a meeting, and now this sentence has become the most important part of Silicon Valley Electronics Group's corporate culture. The first sentence that personnel must remember to recite is this sentence...

After entering the gate of Silicon Valley Electronics Group, this sentence is also engraved on a huge bluestone tablet not far in front of the field of vision. Every time people see it, they will be reminded once to encourage employees to work hard, pursue perfection, and strive for innovation! !

Henry has a principle in his heart, no matter what he wants to do, since he has to do it, he must do it the best! ! !

...

...

The development of the java programming language takes a long time, not only to launch the language, but also to develop the java platform development environment, so that developers can write software after learning the java programming language!

As for wifi technology, Australia only applied for a patent in 1996, and it must have been studied for several years before! Henry didn't want to give this kind of super gold-absorbing patent to others! Immediately asked some people from Qualcomm to join the Williams laboratory and began to develop wifi technology!

Williams Lab will replace the R\u0026D department of Silicon Valley Electronics Group. All patents and technologies will belong to Williams Lab. What Silicon Valley Electronics Group has to do is to transform the technology developed in the laboratory into products! ! !

a few days later. James Gosling, the father of java, and his party came to Silicon Valley Electronics Group.

After Henry settled them, when he went to ask about MP3, the research and development of micro-hard disks had already made a breakthrough. Has been shrunk down to 1 inch and storage size up to 30Mb! Hearing this news, Henry couldn't help but get excited!

That means MP3s won't take long to make!

The MP3 software itself might take a few Mb, then. There are more than twenty Mb left to store songs!

A song is about 1Mb, and it is no problem to store more than 20 songs! ! !

Henry Lai immediately went to the micro hard disk department.

The hard disk department of Silicon Valley Electronics Group is divided into two departments: ordinary hard disk and micro hard disk! Ordinary hard disks are naturally conventional hard disks provided for personal computers, servers, workstations, etc., while micro hard disks currently only provide hard disk services for MP3!

Silicon Valley Electronics Group is already considering micro-drives in cameras. Flash cards are used in most cameras these days. Today's flash memory cards have a storage capacity of only a few Mb. Not many photos can be stored. And once using the micro hard drive. With the size of dozens of kilobytes of ordinary photos at present, the camera can definitely store hundreds of photos! ! !

At present, the huge advantage of micro hard disk is undoubtedly much stronger than flash memory card!

Silicon Valley Electronics Group is making cameras by itself. If it acquired Carl Zeiss from Germany, it would be making cameras by itself! With the technology of Carl Zeiss, the camera made is definitely no worse than other companies, plus the "super-large" memory of the micro hard disk. Presumably after its launch, it will definitely shock the industry!

Henry suppressed his excitement and walked into the micro-hard disk development laboratory!

The person in charge of the project brought a sample of the micro-hard drive over. Henry took it in his hand and looked at it. It was 1 inch in size, and it was like a matchbox in his hand. Henry shook it up and down, and could feel a little weight.

"Is the hard drive easily damaged?" Henry asked, "like a minor bump or something..."

"The probability of damage if dropped on the ground within one meter is less than 10%. If it is 1.5 meters, the probability of damage will exceed 50%," replied the person in charge of the micro-hard disk team.

Henry frowned, "The probability of damage at 1.5 meters is more than half. It seems that the shock absorption technology needs to be strengthened!!!"

"Yes, we are already working on this!"

"Very good..." Henry nodded to show that he knew.

It is said that the Nokia brick mobile phone can be thrown from the second floor to the first floor without any damage. Our MP3 is not to be compared with the brick mobile phone, but it should not be too bad.

Although it is not good in terms of shock absorption, MP3 can be launched first, and then upgraded later, it is a gimmick!

Afterwards, the technician plugs the micro-hard drive into the computer and displays its storage size!

While demonstrating, the technician introduced: "In 1988, Fehr and Greenberger discovered the giant magnetoresistance effect, a very weak magnetic change can cause a very significant resistance change in magnetic materials. Therefore, we based on this giant magnetism Resistance effect, giant magnetoresistance technology is being developed, if the giant magnetoresistance technology has a breakthrough, then the sensitivity of the magnetic head will be enhanced, the storage density of the hard disk will be greatly improved, and the capacity of our micro hard disk will also increase!! "

Henry was shocked when he heard this!

Giant magnetoresistance technology is a very powerful technology. After IBM first launched giant magnetoresistance technology in 1997, the development of hard disks entered a stage of rapid progress, and its storage capacity began to increase at an alarming rate! ! !

"How is the technology progressing?!!" Henry asked hurriedly.

"one third!"

"Well, that's good!!!" Henry nodded, glanced at everyone, and then said solemnly, "In the future, we will increase the research and development of this technology. I believe that giant magnetoresistance technology will change the current pattern of hard disks! !!"

"Yes!!!" The surrounding technicians responded in unison!

After visiting the micro hard disk laboratory, Henry stopped by the ordinary hard disk department. Henry arrived there, chatted a bit, and finally came to the MP3 department!

With the hard disk, the biggest problem of storage is solved! MP3 other problems are not too big a problem! So, Henry didn't ask them one by one, and asked the person in charge of industrial design to talk about his requirements for MP3.

"The shape design of MP3 must be fashionable, designed as a 'rounded rectangle', and at the same time, the appearance patent must be registered!!!"

"At present, we will make two colors of white and black! As for the shell, it is best to use a metal shell, which is not only hard, but also gives people a high-end atmosphere and a high-grade feeling! Although the cost will be slightly higher, our MP3 and Sony portable Listen to a comparison, but it is much cheaper, and the price has a competitive advantage! Of course, the most important thing is that the core competitiveness of our MP3 is that you can download songs from the Internet at any time, and the cost of purchasing songs will be much lower than the Walkman!! !"
