I've been seeing news stories like this every couple of years for most of my life, and yet storage technology just continues to plod along at the same pace it always has. Nothing ever comes of it.

Just as you probably never see tape storage, you would never see this storage method either, as it's not intended for personal use.

However, while you do not see tape storage being used, it's maybe what the majority of world's storage uses.
