5 Setting The Stage! Storage is a key area that will account for 75 percent of new corporate hardware spending. (Lou Gerstner, IBM chief executive, May 18, 2000 (CNET))! Storage spending is expected to grow from 4 percent of IT budgets in 1999 to 17 percent by a 325% increase. (Forrester Research Inc.)! Analysts who develop the Top 500 Supercomputer list predict that by 2004 only teraflop machines will be on the list. IBM plans to spend $100 million to build Blue Gene a 1,000 teraflop machine by 2005.! By 2010 nearly every organization will have its own 1,000 teraflop supercomputer. (Gordon Bell senior researcher in Microsoft's Telepresence Research Group)! Radio astronomy data collection typically 1 Gbps continuously for 24 hours at 10 stations (110 TB/day) repeated several times a month. (Alan Whitney, MIT Haystack Observatory)! Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory, which collects particle physics data 24/7 for periods of 1-2 years generating approximately 100 EB/year. (Dr. Diesberg, Computing Division)! Discover II, SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) goal to map planet to 1 meter 3D resolution by [Equates to 76,800 TB.] (Tom Tillotson, NRO Acting Program Manager, 1999)! National Center for Atmospheric Research stored 196 TB on 162,000 tape cartridges as of July 1999 and 250 TB by March 2000 and projects a 2,800-percent increase by (Gene Harano NCAR) International Data Corp forecasts that corporations will store 57,000,000 terabytes of information by 2004.

11 Optical Tape! Proven technology with over 40 year history receiving government and private funding.! Standards committee chaired by National Institute of Science and Technology will develop American National Standard Institute standard.! Beta testing will begin by 2001.! Technology has demonstrated WORM and erasable tape with first generation density to support 1.3 terabytes and 24 MB/sec transfer rate on DTF form factor.! Optical tape technology growth will leverage optical disk technology.! Optical tape meets the WORM requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. [Release No ; File No. S ]! Contributors to technology development include: 3M, Avid, Calimetrics, Creo, DOW/Southwall, EMC, Honeywell, IBM, ICI, Kodak, LOTS, Lucent, MicroContinuum, Phillips, Polaroid, SAIC, TRW, and Xerox. (See: NIST ATP Focused Program in Digital Data Storage, Optical Recording Technology)! In 1985, Polaroid developed a new, low cost continuous roll process for making optical discs (CD-audio, CD-ROM, etc.). During the next 14 years, Polaroid spent millions of dollars in the development of optical media. Through an IP/licensing agreement and with permission and encouragement, the principal architects at Polaroid formed MicroContinuum, Inc. in 1998 to continue the development of optical tape.
