DNA Data Storage Necklace DNAStore Launches: 1 Gram of DNA Stores 1TB of Personal Data

Catalog Technologies releases consumer-grade DNA data storage necklace DNAStore, encoding personal data into synthetic DNA molecules stored in a pendant, with 1 gram of DNA capable of storing 1TB of data for a millennium.

Catalog Technologies released the consumer-grade DNA data storage necklace DNAStore on December 21. The necklace pendant contains 0.5 grams of synthetic DNA capable of storing 500GB of personal data including photos, documents and passwords. Data is encoded as DNA base sequences with a theoretical preservation lifespan exceeding 1,000 years.

DNAStore's write speed remains slow — encoding 500GB takes approximately 48 hours. However, read speed has been significantly improved, with data extraction completed in 30 minutes using Catalog's dedicated sequencer. Priced at $299 including first data encoding service.
