330TB on a single tape cartridge. Outstanding work from IBM on this effort. Tape storage is still in use today.

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

    And in 5-10 years they'll actually have something at this capacity level in production - which will be a good thing as hard drive arrays are already pushing past that capacity level.
     
     Gotta wonder what the data transfer rate on such a drive would be, and what interface they would use....
     
     

    Now that vorsholk has stopped his abuse, I'm returning to folding.
     I no longer MOO due to abuses by certain "whales" in the Gridcoin community - so I now work the Distributed.net project directly again.
