DNA as Data Storage

DNA is highly dense, durable, and easily readable as a data storage medium. Its density surpasses that of current technologies, making it hard to beat. DNA can be read fast, will be readable for generations to come, and can last for a thousand years. The storage capacity of a single gram of DNA is approximately 250 million gigabytes, showcasing its high efficiency. Initially used for archival storage, advancements in encoding compute elements in biology make DNA a feasible and compatible storage medium.
