No that wasn't it. I don't recall the details, but it had to do with data recovery. I read about it in a book about IBM's early computers, which described the development of their various computers and other hardware.
This is the book I read. I borrowed it from the Mississauga Library, but they don't seem to have it anymore.

Wow the index is 22 pages. Must have been a heavy read. Maybe the reference library still has a copy. $50.00 for the hard cover but $70 for paperback is kind of hard to understand but so are lots of things these days.
