Abstract
The evolution of disk storage technology is examined along with its application in current and possible future disk files. Progress in bubble storage technology is considered, and its merits are assessed as a competing storage technology. Tradeoffs in cost and performance are studied, which can enhance the application of disks and bubbles in computer storage hierarchies. Finally, likely entry points for bubbles in storage hierarchies are identified along with the required advances in bubble storage density.Keywords
