  comment = {A good overview of the current state-of-the art in March 1991,
  including particular numbers and vendor names. They discuss disk media
  (density, rotation, etc.), parallel transfer disks, disk arrays, parity and
  RAID, HiPPI, tape archives, optical memory, and holographic storage. Rotation
  speeds can increase as diameter goes down. Density increases are often offset
  by slower head settling times. Disk arrays will hit their ``heydey'' in the
  1990s. Trend toward network-attached storage devices, that don't need a
  computer as a server.}
