higher storage capacity than disk storage, but it takes longer to write
or recover data from tape than from disk.
tape density The number of characters that can be stored on magnetic media,
such as how close together data can be recorded. The Xerox LPS
may use either 1600 bpi or 6250 bpi density magnetic media.

tape past the read/write head while data is accessed or stored.
