DATA AND DNA
Microsoft executives have revealed that they aim to have a "proto-commercial" DNA data storage system available in three years and hope to have an operational model in a decade. The eventual device will be around the size of a 1970s era Xerox Printer.

Microsoft's current system works by firstly converting data from zeroes and ones to the ATCG molecules DNA is composed of, with markers to show how the original piece of data was composed. These sequences are then synthesized into actual DNA, and pooled with the other sequences created.
To extract and access the files, a polymerase chain reaction is used to select the appropriate sequences. These are then read, and the ATCG molecules are turned back into data. Both Microsoft's studies and a similar experiment run by Erlich Lab members Dina Zielinski and Yaniv Erlich (who also predicted DNA storage would be usable in about a decade) showed that the extracted content was error-free.
While the process has been refined, the cost and time of the procedure is impeding further development. The chemical process used to manufacture DNA strands is both laborious and expensive: the 13,448,372 unique pieces of DNA used in the Microsoft study would cost $800,000 on the open market. That research — while record breaking in quantity — "did not [show] any progress towards the goal" of increasing speed or decreasing cost, Elrich said in an interview with MIT Technology Review.
