Management decided that copying client backup data to spinning disks was expensive so they just piled the disks in to a storage facility. They also decided that a proper disk tracking system was an unnecessary expense when there were so many cardboard boxes just laying around unused.

They also neglected to write sunset clauses in to the backup contracts so they get to keep all those degrading disks in storage for ever.

so don't mess with the ninja
