Well, I know it's an EU thing, but someone (Zahn, maybe?) explained why they use clunky old robots to store data as well, rather than easier methods, so that kinda fits in with the data tapes thing. I mean, even at the time the movie was made, other movies used higher imaginary technology for such things as data storage. They could've easily said 'holo-tapes' or something like that. Even Star Trek just used those colorful little zip disc-looking things.
