Fujifilm LTO Ultrium 6 media is the latest midrange data storage product to use Fujifilm's advanced NANOCUBIC coating process. At a Glance Fujifilm's LTO Ultrium 6 media is the first in the world produced with Barium Ferrite magnetic particles using Fujifilm's core NANOCUBIC technology for a thin & uniformly coated magnetic layer. LTO Ultrium 6 Overview The LTO Ultrium 6 cartridge offers a super high compressed (2.5x) storage capacity of 6.25TB with a transfer rate of up to 400 megabytes per second. Nano Technology Fujifilm LTO Ultrium 6 data cartridges use Fujifilm’s advanced NANOCUBIC coating process, which incorporates three Fujifilm proprietary technologies: Nano-particle Technology: Finer particles (30% smaller than metal particle used on LTO-5) Nano-dispersion Technology: Uniform particle dispersion by applying high-dispersed binder. Nano-coating Technology: enhanced ultra-thin layer coating to realize an even thinner magnetic layer. As part of Fujifilm’s overall commitment to develop environmentally sustainable products, Fujifilm’s LTO Ultrium 6 cartridge offers a reduction on its impact on the environment by eliminating brominated flame retardants (BFRs) from all the mechanical parts of Fujifilm LTO-6 cartridges. Tape is already viewed by many in the data storage industry to have less of an impact on the environment than other storage options because it consumes less energy. LTO technology is a powerful, scalable, adaptable open tape format developed & enhanced by the Technology Provider Companies (TPC) – HP, IBM & Quantum – to help address the growing demands of data protection in the midrange to enterprise-class server environments. LTO Ultrium 6 Features Fujifilm LTO Ultrium 6 cartridges offer more space to record specific cartridge information, with the introduction of a 16K Cartridge Memory (IC chip). This feature allows the user to record cartridge load/unload history & easily monitor the cartridge health. Fujifilm’s unique high-rigidity reel design prevents hub deformation, which could result in tape edge damage. This feature is particularly important as the tape length gets longer & thinner. In addition, Fujifilm LTO Ultrium 6 cartridges with Ba Fe have a long archival life (over 30 years) & show good performance when used with older drives that have aged from repeated use. LTO Generation 6 hardware will be backward write compatible with LTO Ultrium 5 data cartridges & backward read compatible with LTO Ultrium 4 data cartridges. As with the previous generation, LTO Ultrium 6 hardware will incorporate the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) & Linear Tape File System (LTFS) dual partitioning functionality. Fujifilm’s newest line-up will include an LTO Ultrium 6 WORM cartridge for Write-Once Read-Many applications, such as data storage compliance standards which require a non-rewriteable format. Features High capacity & amazing transfer rates Capacity: 6.25TB (Compressed) / 2.5TB (Native) Dual partitioning capability LTFS feature in LTFS enabled drives & systems Transfer speed: 400MB/second (Compressed); 160MB/second (Native) Enhanced durability Encrypted for security Made possible by Fujifilm Barium Ferrite using our NANOCUBIC Technology
