Since we’re we’re right smack in the middle of the calendar year — and the news flow is slowing down a bit due to summer vacation time — it’s a good time to stop, enjoy a break from hard news and take a high-level look at trends in the storage business.

And a good place to find that out would be right here at eWEEK, at this link : “Five Continuing Trends in Data Storage.”

Yes, we are teasing you a bit here at The Station. Sorry about that. But we wrote this story today and don’t think we should have to copy it over here. Just click on the link, read the story, hopefully you learn something — and your assignment is complete.

Then, Americans: Please have yourself a great Fourth of July weekend. To everybody else in the world: Have a good regular weekend!
