Abstract
For over eight years Burroughs Corporation has designed and manufactured random access bulk storage devices. The first two such devices produced were the Burroughs 205 and 220 Datafile units. They were magnetic tape storage devices in which a common read/write head was positioned to one of fifty strips of magnetic tape. After head positioning, finding the information in question was the same as searching for a record on a conventional magnetic tape unit.
