Cranberry Diamond Disc - the Holy Grail for backups?

More Precious than Diamonds. Your Memories Carved in Stone.

When something will last forever, we say it's "written in stone." That's what we're going to do with your digital files. Photos, music, movies, documents, ledgers - anything and everything you care about — will be etched forever into a special disc made from a diamond-like material. There's no storage on earth as secure as a Cranberry DiamonDisc™.

It's the permanent, backwards-compatible archive solution for the digital age.


The Library of Congress warns,"Storage media such as compact discs and DVDs that were thought to last, don't — they often fail within a few years." Millenniata, the inventor of the Cranberry DiamonDisc, has eliminated all the failure points in DVD technology. The result is a diamond-like DVD that will last for centuries and is not susceptible to failure.

The Cranberry DiamonDisc has no adhesive layers, dye layer or reflective layer to deteriorate. A high-intensity laser physically etches your information into the diamond-like surface of our synthetic stone disc. No other layer is needed.

The format is the same as any other DVD. We changed only the materials and construction of the physical disc. And the Cranberry DiamonDisc is fully backwards-compatible. This means that it can be read by any DVD player in any computer and is fully platform-independent.
Diamond. Better than Gold.

A Cranberry DiamonDisc is transparent. You can see right through it. No need for a reflective layer of silver or gold.

TRIVIA: Gold sells for about $1,000 an ounce. But one ounce of average quality, 1-carat diamonds will sell for $825,000.

Diamond – 825 times better than gold.

"Storage media such as compact discs and DVDs that were thought to last don't — they often fail within a few years. The backup discs you make today may become damaged or obsolete in the future."

— Library of Congress Website




Writing to the Cranberry DVD


Specialized hardware is required to etch the diamond-like surface of a Cranberry DiamonDisc. The cost of this hardware puts it out of the reach of most consumers. This is why we’ll need to etch your DiamonDisc for you.
