Imagine swapping out thousands of LTO-9 tapes for just one cartridge. A Chinese research team is working on a groundbreaking DNA tape storage system that could make this a reality. If their system hits its theoretical max capacity, it could revolutionize data storage, making it more efficient and compact. This innovation could change how we think about data management, offering a glimpse into a future where massive amounts of information fit into a tiny space.
