Abstract
The accelerated growth of information and the rapid devel opment of digital coding techniques have given rise to a new need for greater information storage.
This has led to the expansion of the peripheral storage market which today represents one of the fastest growing sectors of the electronics industry.
The rise of commercial optical technology is creating dramatic increases in information storage capacity, particularly m the area of graphics storage.
This technology is presently being introduced to the high-end and midrange drives market but will be expanded to low-end and mass-storage systems production (i.e., 'juke boxes') as early as 1985.
