Gus, Toko; <<So, HDD and Tape Drives as mainline technologies look like they have leadership roles intact. Now all they have to figure out is how to best get around the superparamagnetic effect in the next few years.>> <<. Does this make the Hitachi vertical recording milestone (2 years time-to-market) more important than it seemed at the time?>> Even IBM's venerated "roadmap" shows vertical recording kicking in at 90 GBpsi. I think vertical is an inevitable. Then again, a lot of engineering between here and there. By the way,the top end of the "limit" on most charts today (assuming vertical) weighs in around 180 GBpsi. Best, Stitch
