According to media reports,Fujifilm (China) recently released a new generation of massive data storage solutions and launched its flagship product LTO Ultrium 10 data streaming tape.Kenichi Tanaka, chairman and president of Fujifilm (China), focused on the core technological breakthrough of LTO 10 at the press conference: the first use of independently developed "fine composite magnetic particle" technology. This technology combines the new generation of "strontium ferrite (SrFe) magnetic powder" and the existing "barium ferrite (BaFe) magnetic powder",By reducing the size of magnetic particles and optimizing performance, the maximum capacity of a single box is 75TB (30TB uncompressed), which is 1.7 times higher than the previous generation LTO 9.
In terms of performance, LTO 10 has a maximum transfer rate of up to 1000MB/sec (uncompressed 400MB/sec) to meet high-speed storage needs. Compared with hard disk drives (HDDs), tapes are more economical in terms of initial introduction costs and service life.
Security is another major advantage of LTO 10.The air gap technology it uses ensures that data is stored in a state of physical isolation from the network, effectively preventing the risk of data loss caused by system failures, ransomware or hacker attacks.
Tanaka Kenichi emphasized that recording media has become an important growth engine for Fujifilm. In the past three years, its tape business in China has continued to grow and its global market share has continued to expand. Currently, China's autonomous driving industry is using tapes to store raw data, and tapes are also widely used to back up and archive massive training data for AI models.
