Rudiger Stroh, Executive Vice president and General Manager of Agere's Storage Division, said: "Today, PMR technology is responsible for areal density growth in leading edge disk drive products".

"The storage industry has learned a great deal and refined the technology for enhanced performance".

"The Agere speakers will be sharing with symposium delegates what we've learned, including some surprises, as PMR has become a reality".

Janukowicz and Dolan's session in the day-long symposium is scheduled for 1245 local time at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, 5101 Great America Parkway, in Santa Clara.

PMR technology is increasing dramatically the areal density of today's hard disk drives, thereby boosting the data storage capacity of a wide range of electronic devices.
