> The first Cerabyte solution, CeraMemory, will come as a cartridge that contains sheets with ceramic coatings. If you looked closely at the data stored, it would look like "quasi-punched cards in nano-scale."

Their road map to denser storage, TB/cm vs GB/cm, mentions tapes. The cartridges make sense since they're essentially cd-roms, CeraTape on the other hand with 10 nanometer coating seems like magic.

> Meanwhile, CeraTape (2030-35) gives away the storage medium type in its name. These data tapes will have a 5 µm thick substrate with a 10 nm thick ceramic coating.
