I heard about technology about 6 years back and nice to see it making in-road to commercial product.
Media backup is becoming snow-ball. Most of my previous backups were in DVD; which need rewriting on new disc every few years. Reliability is another major issue.
With explosion of HD images and video; need for robust & quality archiving is increasing. I know several friends who purchased several TB of harddisks and need to keep multiple copies just in case.
Most corporates use magnetic discs for this purpose because DVD or BD could not be reliable enough to trust in long run. We are talking about petabytes of data here. If this technology proves what it promises then it will certainly make major difference.
