Fun fact: CERN sells old data tapes as souvenirs, I got myself one of the old LHC tapes :)

With the data included (not wiped)?

As far as I know nobody has ever tried to read one ;)

Though 5PB of data is freely available via https://opendata.cern.ch/

With another 4PB available which can be processed on request to extract samples of interest: https://opendata.cern.ch/docs/lhcb-releases-service-to-acces...

According to the label, the data is included. But it is just experimental data from the LHC, nothing that has to stay secret.
