The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Future Options for HDD Storage (2009, background): “If even half of that can be achieved (one bit per two grains) then, with 5 to 6 nm grains, an areal-density of 10 Tb/in could be achieved [10].”
Retrospective: Flipping Bits in Memory Without Accessing Them: An Experimental Study of DRAM Disturbance Errors (2023, unknown): “Disturbance errors are a general class of reliability problem that a ﬄ icts not only DRAM, but also other memory and storage technologies: SRAM [16, 26, 40], ﬂash [10, 12, 13, 19, 25], and hard-disk [36, 63, 68].”
RowHammer: A Retrospective (2019, background): “All scaled memory technologies, including SRAM [62], [93], [120], flash [42], [45], [46], [50]–[53], [67], [165], [166], [169], [212], and hard disk drives [109], [232], [247], exhibit such disturbance problems.”
Bit-Patterned Magnetic Recording: Theory, Media Fabrication, and Recording Performance (2015, background): “The shingled write process [2] writes islands with a head that is wider than the TP.”
