the memory crystal with an inch diameter can store up to 360TB of data and can endure temperature of up to 1000 degrees Celsius. It can last for 13.8 billion years in a room that has a 190-degree Celsius temperature

Cartridges are too expensive, disks slow and cumbersome. It will probably still be a long time before these can be read fast or produced for little money. Can't exactly mass produce them in a press like discs.

Well Holographic Discs and Cards where supposed to be the next great thing in storage but neither ever made it to the market since overall the technology is too expensive since the cost of the readers is way too high.
