Needless to say, Fujifilm is citing generative AI and other AI-related services as major drivers behind the growing demand for magnetic tape
LTO-10 tapes were released earlier this year, providing a native capacity of 40 terabytes.

I’d love consumerish tape storage for cold backups. I don’t really need random IO for archival stuff.
Yeah, same, but every time I look at second hand stuff its crazy expensive, or completely obsolete.
And if something dies, good luck on getting replacements lol.
I’d love tape but >5k for a drive is a bit outside my budget.
Yeah, the longevity for tape backups feels entirely theoretical when the tape drives themselves are out of production, so you could end up with a perfect tape, and nothing can read it…
I mean…The parts are probably easy enough to remanufacture.
IF you have the budget of an AWS or Azure.
For us? Yep. Sadly.
