Magnetic Tape Data Storage
A global leader in information and imaging technology and products, announced that researchers utilized an advanced technology incorporating a new barium-ferrite (BaFe) particle to demonstrate the potential of multiple-terabyte storage capacity on a single data tape cartridge. The researchers were able to demonstrate the ability to store 6.67 billion bits (Gigabits) per square inch of data tape using the linear recording format - more than 15 times the recording density of current LTO Gen 3 data tape. The demonstration points to the possibility of creating a single tape cartridge capable of holding eight terabytes in the future. In addition, the technology utilizes a cost-effective, dual-layer particulate process for creating the media, which is more commercially viable than other systems such as evaporated metal or sputtering techniques.
