What are some interesting 'alternate' storage methods?

>>Sim Cards
you can get as many free 'unregistered' business sims as you want, and each can store atleast 250 contacts @ 14 chars name & 20 digit numbers each. assuming each char or digit is 1 byte, thats 8.5k of usable storage. you would need around 118 of them to store 1mb of data (broken up over 59,000 entries)

>>Barcodes
1D Barcodes cannot store much more than a few hundred bits per inch.
2D colour Barcodes can apparently store upto 2k per inch
>>
>>58995335

>>Magnetic cards
Magnetic cards can apparently store around 200k over 3 tracks (although the writer is expensive)
>>
>>58995342
>>NFC Tag

cheaper NFC tags can only store around 144 bytes. High capacity tags can store around 480 bytes
>>
Qr codes
>>
>>Paper sheet

Can store virtually an infinite number of char

Can hold around 2.5 petabytes. extremely high risk of data corruption.

2D colour barcodes seem to be the best compression per square inch of paper
>>
>>58995744
not as information dense as 2d colour barcodes, but they are another form of barcode technology
