Remember The Cassette Tape? Those Things MAY Be The Next Big Data Device!!

Bloomfield, Essex County. . .World.  Check this out!!

Most of us remember what a Cassette tape is, or having a VHS player for watching movies right…Right?  The fact of the matter is, that with DVD, Blu-Ray and iPods, these technologies have seemed to all but die out.

Or so we think!

Research that has been going on in Switzerland has produced a cassette storage device that is 10cm X 10cm X 2cm that holds up to 35 TERABYTES of data.  Think about it.  1 gigabyte of data = 1/1000 of a Terabyte.  This smaller-than-a-stamp CASSETTE tape holds 35,000 gigabytes of data!!!

Who said the Cassette tape was dead??
