Data storage is cheap: what a myth!
Excellent post about the myth that storage is cheap.
... yeahh but storage is not archiving or digital preservation which enables to understand what we have stored once (often many years ago).
Again, it's the storage mgmt which is creating the costs but it's needed to ensure readability and understandability of the information which was stored.

It goes hand in hand with another myth: that search tools alone ensure findability. It's all about metadata to enable data quality and structured information.
Garbage in, garbage out.
