A more convenient (and dare I say, faster) tape drive replacement for backups? They do make a good point, it would take 10*24TB drives working in the worst raid configuration to even come close to these speeds.

65 hours to restore a full backup

Yes, but with all that data, how much heavier does it get?

A single speck of dust could throw off that measurement (~ 1.6 x 10^-7 grams)

Extremely dense QLC chips. Still it's 2700-3000MByte, ie ~3GByte/second.

What should worry way more is DWPD which is abysmal... on the first glance. But if you punch it in the calc it still would take ages to wear it out.
