> Today IBM is unveiling a new milestone bringing to light work more than 15 years in the making between IBM researchers and Fujifilm. Together, we have set yet another new world record in tape storage – our sixth since 2006. Pushing the limits, we achieved 317 GB/in2 (gigabits per square inch) in areal density on a prototype strontium ferrite (SrFe) particulate magnetic tape developed by Fujifilm. This is approximately 27 times more than the areal density used in current state-of-the-art commercial tape drives.

I think Pfizer should take their engineers and work with IBM to develop the ultimate storage: human brain implants. The amount of lies you can store in a human brain should be absolutely insane!

The aliens got laser brains of pain and lies

I wonder how easily it can be wiped or “accidentally erased” bleach-bit and hammer styling.
