Muddiest Post

Muddiest Point

One thing that seemed to interest me that wasn't very clear in our discussion was the amount of data storage available in this day and age. The slide displayed the different classes of contact units, but what wasn't clear was if there were any real uses of all that storage. Are there any places, companies, etc. that have used a Exabyte, Zettabyte, or a Yottabyte? What would they need that kind of storage for? A follow up to that is would an archives or museum be interested in having that kind of data storage for their digitization needs? Or would that be considered a waste of time and money?
