Rotary Storage Systems Rotary storage systems are filing cabinets specialised office furniture units usually consisting of a double sided rotating unit, allowing the user to access two full sides of filing from one point. A foot pedal or lever is often used to operate the rotation mechanism, thus allowing user easy control. Capacity, Siting and Speed Advantages Many rotary filing systems can store the contents of seventeen four drawer filing cabinets in just three eight tier units, allowing multiple times the storage volume created by traditional filing cabinets . A wide range of fitments makes the systems suitable for storing a vast array file types and multimedia. For security, each unit can invariably be locked individually. Rotary storage systems usually have no shutters or doors, thereby can be sitied very close to walls or partitioning, giving a very efficient use of floor space. Units are often used to divide office space. Rotary storage units can allow faster file access than banks of conventional cabinets as 50 of stored items are immediately visible to the operator, the rest typically being a pedal push away.

Refimprove date December 2009 Optical storage is a term from engineering referring to the storage of data on an optically readable medium. Data is recorded by making marks in a pattern that can be read back with the aid of light , usually a beam of laser light precisely focused on a spinning disc. An older example, that does not require the use of computers, is microform . There are other means of optically storing data and new methods are in development. Optical storage differs from other computer data storage data storage techniques that make use of other technologies such as magnetism or semiconductor s. Optical storage can range from a single drive reading a single CD ROM to multiple drives reading multiple discs such as an optical jukebox . Single compact discs can hold around 700MB megabyte s and optical jukebox es can hold much more ref Compact Disc http en.wikipedia.org wiki Compact Disc ref . The term optical drive usually refers to a device in a computer that can read CD ROM s or other optical disc s. It is estimated that in the year 2007, optical storage represents 27 of the world s technological capacity to store information ref name HilbertLopez2011 http www.sciencemag.org content 332 6025 60 The World s Technological Capacity to Store, Communicate, and Compute Information , especially http www.sciencemag.org content suppl 2011 02 08 science.1200970.DC1 Hilbert SOM.pdf ... , 60 65 free access to the article through here martinhilbert.net WorldInfoCapacity.html ref .
