Data storage technology is rapidly progressing. Many barriers and limits exist, but many new technologies are up and coming. It will be exciting in the next few years to watch what kind of storage devices come out of the electronics and computer industries in this, and other, countries. There will no doubt be records set for size (or lack thereof), capacity, and data transfer rates. I look forward to it.
