Fujifilm's epic 40TB tape cartridge is here - despite what Elon Musk says, the future of offline data storage looks very bright

• Fujifilm’s 40TB tape expands archival capacity without forcing enterprises to redesign infrastructure
• Offline storage remains relevant as ransomware pressure reshapes enterprise data protection strategies
• Tape continues gaining ground where long-term retention costs dominate technical decisions

After the initial announcement of a new generation of LTO Ultrium cartridges offering 40TB of native capacity, Fujifilm has now launched this magnetic tape.

The Fujifilm 40TB LTO Ultrium 10 data cartridge targets enterprises facing rising ransomware incidents and increasing regulatory pressure.

It is also designed for organizations managing growing volumes of archival data produced by analytics and machine learning workloads.
