Purpose-built archive media
This FUJIFILM LTO-6 Ultrium cartridge delivers 2.5 TB native and 6.25 TB compressed capacity for long-term data retention. It uses patented Barium Ferrite particles with NANOCUBIC coating technology to achieve a thin, uniform magnetic layer. The tape length measures 2775.59 ft within a 4.2-inch wide form factor. Cartridge 3439048 is suited for organisations that require offline, air-gapped backup.
Drive and library integration
The cartridge fits standard LTO-6 tape drives and autoloaders without additional adapters or cabling. It supports WORM functionality for regulatory compliance and LTFS dual partitioning for file-system-style access. Native transfer rates reach 160 MB/s and compressed rates reach 400 MB/s, reducing backup window duration. No host-side software licence is included with the media itself.
Sustained streaming behaviour
During continuous write or verify jobs the Barium Ferrite formulation maintains stable signal quality across the full tape length. Chemical stability of the magnetic particles resists degradation over multi-decade archival storage. Performance scales linearly with drive streaming capability rather than peaking in short bursts. The media is not intended for random-access workloads or primary storage tiers.

Questions about this item
What native transfer rate can the LTO-6 cartridge sustain during a long backup job?
The cartridge supports a native transfer rate of 160 MB/s, which is the figure that limits sustained write performance.
How much heat does the tape generate when the drive runs continuously?
The cartridge itself produces no heat; all thermal output comes from the tape drive mechanism, not the media.
Which drive generation is required to write to this LTO-6 cartridge?
An LTO-6 tape drive is required; earlier LTO-5 or older drives cannot write this format.
