An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for converting between
serial data and encoded holographic data. The apparatus for converting
between serial data and encoded holographic data is provided with a logic
unit containing a plurality of modules configured to functionally execute
the necessary steps of reading data signals from and writing data signals
to a data bus on a computing device, converting between a serial data
stream and an encoded data image, and reading data from and writing data
to a holographic storage medium. From the foregoing discussion, it should
be apparent that a need exists for an apparatus, system, and method for
converting between serial data and encoded holographic data.
Beneficially, such an apparatus, system, and method would encode backup
information directly with the data as it is written to the storage
medium.
