Magnetic tapes (e.g. LTO-9) get about that density at outrageously low prices, but we only use them for specialized archival work, because if you have an 18TB tape and you want data from the middle of it, you need to wait several minutes to mechanically wind the delicate tape to the right spot. If you&#39;re reading everything sequentially, that&#39;s fine, but you can&#39;t do, e.g., fast full text search sequentially. 2025-04-20T16:03:49Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvvw44aayv892cqexvmz58xkgyqy3umxw69wkqe72augyx6d7w9jgzyqlpl67wzxyuua73z5ufdu69p7yn9g9gg2lkxagzzvcnrak5hkxk5l9swpn In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsftmtsn5q3nyyha677flkdl29h7vkg265j5r4e5v28ny3x3np7zjgcvu9nj'>nevent1q…u9nj</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;d love to see a technical standards guild controlled democratically by practitioners (even just in principle) that offered free alternatives to the perfectly cromulent but totally inaccessible ISO series.
