 Random Access Memory  RAM is a form of computer data storage  RAM is a volatile type memory  RAM can also be used as a much faster Hard Drive in the form of RAM disk

 Carbon nanotubes are the strongest stiffest materials on earth  Metallic nanotubes can have an electrical current density more than 1,000 times greater than metals such as silver and copper.  Potential/Future Applications  super high strength composite material  clothes and sports gear to combat jackets and  space elevators  drug delivery

 Nano-RAM is being developed by the Japan based company Nantero  Dr. Thomas Rueckes, Nantero's Chief Technology Officer, uses carbon nanotubes as the active memory elements of NRAM  Dr. Rueckes uses nanotubes great conductivity to create clusters of cells to form NRAM chips

 NRAM chips can be much smaller that today's DRAM chips  NRAM is non-volatile  NRAM, unlike Flash RAM, can read/write with much less power.  NRAM can not be erased with magnets, radiation, even power failure will not corrupt data

 NRAM is great in theory. i have read many different articles on this subject due to a report ia m doing about it. NRAM is also unaffetced by strong magnetic fields and extreme temperature changes like hot and cold. add the fact that tey are 100 times stronger than steel and much more conductive than copper, nanotubes are an interesting way of producing the specified results. Anyways i am waiting for the day when Harddrives will no loner be an issue, and you will no longer worry about loosing reports you have been writing or work you were doing. NRAM is a wonderfull thing in theory, now all that is let is to wait and see. Posted by Dan on 03/10/2005 at 02:40 PM,

 How would the incorporation of NRAM change the computer industry? ◦ Price ◦ Storage Capacity ◦ Hard-drive  What other technology could nanotubes affect?
