Best Answer

If you mean computer files, then lots of people had similar ideas. Files are just places to keep information. Paper files had been used for centuries, with many other names. Many 'inventions' are really just discoveries. Often a time comes when many people start to do the same thing because it has now become possible to do it; but some will always claim they 'Invented' it first.

Is there a way that files stored in Tapes can be directly accessed?

According to what I have read, you can only directly access the files stored in a tape if you have loaded the tape in your system and mounted it. The tape should be virtually mounted before you can access its files. In the accessing process, the files are accessible through the virtual mount (meaning it has been loaded into its respective directory and the operating system can recognize and look/search for it). Its mount provides efficient storing and organizing process of its files for easier and faster access.Answer:No. That is why disk drives were invented.
