What just happened? Kioxia has completed the development of its next-gen optical PCIe 5.0 SSDs, which can operate up to 40 meters from the host system without losing throughput. The breakthrough comes from replacing traditional copper connections with optical communication, allowing the SSD to link directly to a server or CPU over long distances. The optical link supports much longer cable lengths and preserves the full multi-gigabyte-per-second speeds of PCIe 5.0. Kioxia has confirmed successf

A Multiwavelength Look at Proxima Centauri’s Flares The problem of flares in red dwarf planetary systems is stark. With their habitable zones relatively near to the star, planets that might support life are exposed to huge outbursts of particles and radiation that can strip their atmospheres. We can see that in nearby M-dwarfs like Proxima Centauri, which is extremely active not only in visible light but also in radio and millimeter wavelengths. New work at the Atacama Large Millimeter/submilli

Subsea fibre cables can 'listen out' for sabotage 3 hours ago Share Save Chris Baraniuk Technology Reporter Share Save Getty Images Subsea cables are critical to the operation of the internet The diver had found the fibre optic cable lying on the seabed of the North Sea. He swam closer, until it was near enough to touch. He reached out his hand. But someone could tell he was lurking there. Someone was watching. "He stops and just touches the cable lightly, you clearly see the signal," says Da
