Meeting the Demands of AI and Active Archive

As organizations increasingly adopt active archive strategies to support long-term retention of AI-related training data to balance performance, cost, and data protection, LTO tape continues to play a critical role. The new FUJIFILM LTO-10 40TB cartridge strengthens that role by offering:

• Low lifecycle cost per terabyte. Tape remains an economical long-term storage medium, enabling organizations to cost effectively scale archives without escalating operational energy or infrastructure costs.
• Built-in cybercrime resilience. Offline, air-gapped storage provides a powerful defense against ransomware and other cyber threats, ensuring data integrity even in compromised environments.
• Energy efficient data retention. Tape consumes no power at rest, dramatically reducing operational energy usage as compared to other storage media that may consume power 24/7.
• High-capacity media optimized for active archive workflows. With rapid data recall, predictable performance, and compatibility with existing LTO-10 tape drives, the new FUJIFILM LTO-10 tape cartridge supports active archive architectures where data must remain accessible, searchable, and secure over decades.
