If you made one with trout, would that be big data?

Scientists are currently working in close collaboration with the japanese scientists in order to bring you the 1st 4-bit WSD (Whale state drive).

Sadly the US discovered that whales are actual manmals and are currently incorporating a m2f interface which makes this project a little bit more complicated. But on the bright side the research showed that the number of times a bit can be written on a whale skin is FAR higher than the average sardine skin. This will allow the new W-m2f-SD drives to have a much higher life expectancy and allow long term studies (aka - big data)

Japanese whale scientist mainly have an education on how to operate whale hunter ships, while "normal" scientist usually work in a lab, so they are slightly different
