sony mo disk

The Sony MO (Magneto-Optical) Disk is a type of storage media that was first introduced by Sony Corporation in 1985. The MO disk is similar to a traditional hard disk in that it uses magnetic technology to store data, but it also uses a laser to read and write data to the disk.

MO disks are available in various capacities, ranging from 128 MB to 9.1 GB, and they were commonly used in the 1990s and early 2000s as a backup and archival storage medium for large amounts of data, such as digital images and medical records.

One of the advantages of MO disks is that they are highly durable and can withstand exposure to dust, dirt, and other contaminants. They are also resistant to magnetism and can be erased and rewritten many times without any loss of data quality.

However, with the advent of other storage technologies, such as USB drives and cloud storage, the use of MO disks has declined significantly in recent years.
