Sony has developed a data storage tape which will be able to hold 185 TeraBytes of data.
With the help of IBM, Sony has created a storage tape which will be able to hold data equivalent equal to the data held by 3700 blu ray discs. It is 75 times more than the current tapes.
148 gb of data is stored per square inch on the tape, while the tapes used today only stores 2 gb of data per square inch. These tapes will mostly be used in large organizations where data needs to be stored for a long period of time.
Sony says that. "The rapid recovery of data systems such as databases and data servers following natural disasters, as well as secure management of information has become ever more important, and companies around the world are proceeding to build new data systems."
"In addition, the expansion of cloud services and the creation of new markets to utilize big data have led to a growing need for a data storage media which can store large amounts of information."
