Square waves taking more space. Just plain BS. The shape of a wave has no
bearing whatsoever on how much "space" is required to store it.
DDS-2 and DDS-3 (two of the DAT data standards) have nearly identically
length tapes (120m vs. 125m), and have the same linear speed over the
heads. DDS-3 has three times the storage capacity as DDS-2. Clearly,
speed is not a contributing factor to data density.
Doesn't require an expert to show that Jacob has a lot of completely bogus
information.
