What Does HAMR Stand For?
HAMR stands for Heat Assisted Magnetic Recording
HAMR, or Heat Assisted Magnetic Recording, is a cutting-edge data storage technology that enhances the performance and capacity of hard disk drives. By using localized heating to temporarily reduce the magnetic coercivity of the recording medium, HAMR allows for the reliable writing of data at higher densities. This innovative approach enables greater storage capabilities and improves data integrity, making it a pivotal advancement in the evolution of magnetic recording technologies.
