Volume of production, not of disk space.

As for backup that is a vastly unmet need. You have the carbonite scam that is on the rush Limbaugh show (unlimited yeah right) the corporate backup clients that turn home working to not working, and tape drives that cost more than 10 times the size of a drive they can back up, not counting the cost of the tapes, high probability that you pick a bad technology generation of lto, high probability that restore fails, etc.

The computer press has been telling people to back up for years but effective solutions have never been there for the consumer.
