Magnetic tape storage media with a maximum storage capacity of 75TB per cartridge, approximately 70 percent greater than the previous generation.
FUJIFILM India, a wholly owned subsidiary of FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation has launched “FUJIILM LTO Ultrium 10 Data Cartridge” (LTO-10), a magnetic data storage tape cartridge that achieves a maximum recording capacity of 75 TB per cartridge (30 TB for uncompressed data), enabling the secure and cost-effective storage of large amounts of data.
Sharing his excitement about the new launch, Mr. Koji Wada – Managing Director, FUJIFILM India said, “At FUJIFILM India, we are committed to delivering innovative products and solutions that embody our Group purpose of ‘Giving Our World More Smiles.’ By blending diverse ideas, unique capabilities, and extraordinary people, we aim to create solutions that bring joy and smiles to the world. The launch of LTO Ultrium 10 marks a major milestone in our mission to support enterprises with scalable, secure, and future-ready data storage solutions. As the volume of data generated globally continues to soar, it is important that businesses have access to technologies that can safeguard mission-critical information efficiently and cost-effectively.”
Adding on, Mr. J Solomon Sukumar, Associate Director – Recording Media & Industrial Products, FUJIFILM India stated, “With LTO-10, we are introducing a powerful combination of innovation and security for data-centric enterprises in India. The use of fine hybrid magnetic particles enhances recording density while maintaining data integrity and durability, even in high-volume storage environments. From BFSI and healthcare to government and research, organizations today require offline, air-gapped storage that can stand up to evolving cybersecurity threats. LTO-10 empowers them with a dependable solution that not only reduces long-term storage costs but also supports regulatory compliance and business continuity in a rapidly digitizing world.”
LTO-10 is the 10th generation of the LTO Ultrium standard for magnetic tape storage media*1. The new generation provides a substantial 1.67x increase in storage capacity from the previous generation (LTO-9, 18 TB uncompressed). *2 This increase was achieved through Fujifilm’s use of proprietary “fine hybrid magnetic particles,” developed by combining its nanoparticle design technologies used in next-generation Strontium Ferrite (SrFe) particles and Barium Ferrite (BaFe). This is the first time that “fine hybrid magnetic particles” have been used in an “LTO Ultrium” series data cartridge, and supports systems that securely and safely store even larger volumes of data at low cost.
