Reasons to Choose Plasmon MO Drives.

1. Removable, rewritablse mass storage
   
Each removable MO disk holds all of the data, not the drive. This versatile format allows desktop users to read & write data files, just like a high capacity hard disk, with the major added benefit of keeping a separate disk for each project or client.
Key benefits include:

• user's files are more organized
• unlimited capacity - add another disk when one gets full
• disks can be used easily for reliable archive back-ups
• transfer large amounts of data simply & reliably
• secure sites can easily lock up their data at night
• drives also support a "write-once" format disk providing the ultimate in data security -
  once data is written, it cannot be altered.

2. Reliability
   
Since the disks are read and written with a non contact optical head, there's never a head crash like hard disk drives. The disks are made of high strength polycarbonate plastic, the same material as "bullet-proof" glass. The data layer is kept very safe between a sandwich of polycarbonate. Also the disks are rated for more than 50 year data storage life, far longer than hard disks and magnetic tape.

3. Immune to contamination
   
Because the data in an MO disk is well protected under the disk's near indestructible polycarbonate surface, it isn't affected by contamination.

4. Immune to stray magnetic fields
   
An MO disk isn't affected by stray magnetic fields because data is written with a combination of laser and magnetic power. Without this combination, data cannot be altered.
