Regarding the suggested new question (data-dedup and compression), I vote for that. I think it would be of value to see how the community views these technologies.

Attached is the revised Digital Storage Survey. Further suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I apologize for this email being so extensive; below are a few points we would like Working Group's feedback on: > > § Question 1: A suggestion was to add "Solid State Drives (SSD)" as an option. > > § Question 12: A possible change in wording to "more storage" could be "The capability to extend storage capacity." This could clear some of the ambiguity that was mentioned in the feedback.

A suggestion was to add a question which asks "how do you use" external/cloud storage. First of all, is the WG interesting in adding this question? Is there way to structure this question without it being a free-answer question so the results gathered will be easier to evaluate? > > § Suggested new question: "What technologies are you using to reduce your storage costs?" This question could have check boxes or a menu of options, with two possible choices being "data-duplication" and "compression." If the WG is interested in this question then what are some other options we could add? > > I apologize again for the wordiness of this message, but thank you all for taking the time to read it through.
