: A storage technology that uses both lasers and magnetic fields to create an optical disc that is both re-writable, and impervious to magnetic fields. Magneto-Optical discs have been known to survive catastrophic events like floods and smoke damage. | : A storage technology that uses both lasers and magnetic fields to create an optical disc that is both re-writable, and impervious to magnetic fields.

: Magnetic Tape Storage - similar to Audio Cassettes and Video Tape, Tape drives use a long, thin ribbon of plastic coated in magnetic particles to store data. Tape has traditionally had much higher storage capacity than hard drives or optical storage. Around 2005, long-term storage on hard drives became more appealing as the capacity of a single device increased, and power consumption decreased. | : Magnetic Tape Storage - similar to Audio Cassettes and Video Tape, Tape drives use a long, thin ribbon of plastic coated in magnetic particles to store data.
