300gb on one disk. At speeds 10x that of a DVD. If those speeds approach or surpass 10 mb /sec. for the enterprise, this will be the final death of tape backup. Even at today's prices, it is affordable when compared to the price of a full size TLU using 16-20 tape drives.

Currently, the reader costs a lofty $15,000 each, while one single disc costs $120
