Bacteria-based storage systems can save data for thousands of years while protecting it against nuclear explosions. Atoms can hold 250 terabits of data per square inch of surface area. There are organic thin-film structures with more than 20,000 write-read-rewrite cycles. Bacteria can store digital data in the genome of a living organism and retrieve that data hundreds or even thousands years later, after the organism has reproduced its genetic material through hundreds of generations. The potential capacity of bacteria-based memory is enormous.”]
