Heat from a high-density disk heater on the top of the ceramic transforms liquid to vapor.
In considering a new system, in addition to existing operations, Kamioka Observatory took into consideration such factors as the need to be able to transfer the system without interrupting the observations currently being run, transfer of data currently stored in a magnetic tape library to a high-density disk storage system, sufficient CPU performance, high-speed networking, high-speed high-density data storage, and whether 24-hour quick-response support could be provided.
High-density disks are the ones most likely to pack together lots of material rapidly into large, Jupiter-size planets, says Strom.
