isolinear optical chip

In the Star Trek fictional universe, the isolinear optical chip is a common format for data storage among the more developed warp-capable cultures of the alpha and beta quadrants. The format employs holographic technology to store data three-dimensionally throughout the medium. The Starfleet-issued isolinear chip is a small, flat, rectangular unit featuring onboard nanotech processors to aid in memory access and with a maximum capacity of 2.15 kiloquads. Though normally easily corrupted, chips may be coated with a layer of clear plastic for protection in evironments more hostile than a computer core without affecting read and write capabilities; such ruggedized chips are commonly used in tricorders, PADDs, and other handheld devices with isolinear chip drives.
