Default IBM and Sony spruce up magnetic tape

Storing 201 gigabits of data per square inch

IBM and Sony boffins have emerged from their smoke filled labs with a new magnetic tape system capable of storing 201 gigabits of data per square inch.

This means a small cartridge can have a max theoretical capacity of 330 terabytes and store rather a lot of porn. The world's largest hard drives are the 12TB HGST helium-filled HDD and commercially available tapes only store 15TB.
