"Su Mei, give each of the new colleagues a complete set of materials."
Li Bai gestured to the young nurse.
"Okay!"
Su Mei immediately stood up, brought a box over from the corner of the conference room, and set it on the table.
The seven new members of the research and treatment group, Chen Sheng among them, each received several beautifully printed quarterly reports that looked like magazines, as well as a mechanical portable hard drive.
There was a reason for combining printed summary reports with portable hard drives.
For a 2.5-inch mechanical hard drive using the comparatively secure traditional PMR data technology, 1 TB was the maximum capacity possible within a physical thickness of 9 millimeters.
People who knew their stuff tended to steer clear of flashy little temptresses like SMR data technology. New technology wasn't necessarily better; sometimes it led you down the wrong path. There were plenty of such examples in the computer industry. Still, 1 TB of storage would be enough for a long time.
Printed documents alone were no longer nearly enough to contain all the data the research and treatment group had collected, along with the members' various analysis reports. The printing costs alone would have far exceeded the price of these hard drives.
After the Dragon Knight Order from Germany sent people to steal the diagnostic data last time, Li Bai had become more cautious.
You couldn't put all your eggs in one basket. It was best to keep as many backups as possible, and the more people who had the data on hand, the better. The more widely distributed the data was, the harder it would be for anyone to pull the same stunt again.
Looking at the thick stack of diagnostic and treatment reports in his hands, along with a mechanical
