Why DNA As StorageMedium?
5. The DNA storage system
consist of DNA
synthesizer that encodes
the data to be stored in
DNA ,a storage container
with compartments that
store pools of DNA and
DNA sequence that reads
DNA sequences and convert
them back into digital
data.
How It Works!!!
7. • High data storage density
• Withstand extreme environmental conditions
• We can store 215 petabytes in one gramof DNA.
• Secure as invisible to human eye
• Stores digital files without electricity for thousands of years.
Feature of DNA Storage
8. Problems
• Many types of errors are
associated with the current
machines dealing with DNA.
• Low speed.
• Veryhigh cost of production.
• Mutations in DNA
• Theretrieval process is slower than that of a
personal computers.
