An [[Optolythic Data Rod]] is [[Cardassian]] technology that is used to store information and records. These data rods are unique in that they are only produced on an as-needed basis, and information can only be inscribed on them once and cannot be altered thereafter. As a result, these data rods have a reputation for being a secure way to store sensitive data. They are extraordinarily difficult to obtain, and nearly impossible to counterfeit. | An [[Optolythic Data Rod]] is [[Cardassian]]] technology that is used to store information and records.
