NANOCUBIC is an ultra-thin layer coating that results in higher resolution for recording
digital data, ultra-low noise and high signal-to-noise ratios that are ideal for magneto-
resistive (MR) heads. It is capable of catapulting data cartridge to one-terabyte native
(uncompressed) capacities and floppy disk capacities to three gigabytes. To help
visualise the potential, over 700,000 floppy disks or 13 DLT™IV tapes would be re-
quired to store 1TB of data. Fujifilm is already beginning to work with drive manufac-
turers to develop new, high capacity magnetic storage products using NANOCUBIC.

NANOCUBIC consists of:

NANOCUBIC employs an advanced
precision coating process that can
control the thickness of the magnetic
layer on a nanometer scale.

Two types of magnetic particles were
developed for NANOCUBIC, both tens
of nanometers in size: acicular ferro-
magnetic alloy particle and tabular
ferromagnetic hexagonal barium fer-
rite particle.

NANOCUBIC uses a special organic
binder material that has the ability to
thoroughly disperse the particles in the
coating solution so that a uniformly
packed structure of the layer is rea-
lized.

Applications in development include:
magnetic storage tape, both for heli-
cal scan and linear recording formats;
high-capacity floppy disks; high-
definition, long-duration digital video
tape for broadcast and home use; and
data and video storage tape. High-end
tape storage products for enterprise
applications are also possible with
NANOCUBIC.

Enterprise Tape Cartridge

3592

Proprietary Nanocubic technology assures high capacity and rock-solid
reliability

Ruggedly constructed cartridge shells

High-reliability sliding door mechanism

Built in memory modules

In today's information age, enterprise-class data storage systems require the use of
storage media that offer both high capacity and high reliability. FUJIFILM's 3592
Enterprise Tape Cartridge for IBM 3592 TotalStorage Enterprise Tape Drive Systems
offers outstanding reliability.

For maximum durability, cartridge shells are constructed of heavy-gauge resin and
internal components are specially designed to withstand heavy use. Five high
tensile-strength screws are also used to secure the cartridge shell halves together.

Dust protection and durability are enhanced by a high reliable curved sliding door
and leader pin system.

All cartridges are equipped with multifunction non-contact flash memory modules.

LIBRARY PACK - The allround pack

Contents: 20 pcs.

The sturdy transport and archiving packaging developed by FUJIFILM for Enterprise
products protects the cartridges securely against shocks, humidity and dust.

Services to meet every user need
Tapes can be labelled and pre-initialized to meet customer specifications. A wide
variety of color-coded labels and bar-coded labels for automated storage systems
are available to facilitate data library management, ensuring full-service support to
meet virtually every customer need.
