Surely this is not rewritable storage? So more like an archival CD-ROM or tape than the read-write storage of a hard disk. Maybe they will write changes as incremental backups, and then when the medium is full archive it, or even dispose of it, and start a new one? Regardless, I don't see it as a silver bullet.
