Information May Have Mass

Isn't a disk in its "erased state"--whether storing zeroes or random values--still storing information?...

> An example of true erased state would be an array of bits in a magnetic data storage memory, in which the erase operation does not imply reset of all bits to identical magnetized state, but total demagnetization of each bit, so neither 1, nor 0 could be identified in any of the bits.

But if you instead think of the drive as a ternary storage system, now it suddenly would be storing actual valid values, and you can also always define the magnetic readings to be a fully analog storage: so this definition of "information" has to be flawed for being subjective.

Something with a lack of information would need to be something of high entropy--essentially the opposite of information--and thereby more indistinguishable along some axis towards a chaotic gas or whatever.

> From (6), mbit = 0 at T = 0K, so as expected, no information can exist at zero absolute.

Isn't this the exact opposite of correct? Information is maximized at absolute zero, which is used as the definition point of minimal entropy (which is, again, the lack of information).
