IBM and Sony have together created a thin cartridge, in which they were able to store 330 terabytes of data. The cartridge is so small that it can fit into the palm of your hand. This also is a new world record in the field of areal recording density.

Tape drives were first invented over 60 years ago and were traditionally used for archiving tax documents and health care records. IBM’s first tape unit used reels of half-inch-wide tape that could only hold about 2 megabytes of data.
