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:
1. Coating technology:
NANOCUBIC employs an advanced
precision coating process that can
control the thickness of the magnetic
layer on a nanometer scale.
1000
2. Particle technology:
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.
3. Dispersion technology:
NANOCUBIC uses a special organic
binder material that has the ability to
2010
thoroughly disperse the particles in the
MR head
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
Non
data and video storage tape. High-end
tape storage products for enterprise
applications are also possible with

Enterprise Tape Cartridge
3592
Proprietary Nanocubic technology assures high capacity and rock-solid
reliability
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.
Ruggedly constructed cartridge shells
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.
High-reliability sliding door mechanism
Dust protection and durability are enhanced by a high reliable curved sliding door
and leader pin system.
Built in memory modules
All cartridges are equipped with multifunction non-contact flash memory modules.
DATA:
300GB High Capacity Tape Cartridge
Capability to record 512 tracks with capacity of 300GB and 900GB (3:1data com-
pressed).
ECONOMY:
60GB Economical, Fast-Access Tape Cartridge
The fast-access FUJIFILM 3592 Tape minimizes the time to access necessary data.
Its tape is shorter and offers 60GB capacity (180GB with 3:1 data compression).
WORM:
DATA (300GB) and ECONOMY (60GB),
FUJIFILM provides non-alterable and non-rewriteable FUJIFILM 3592 WORM Tape
Cartridges with 300GB and 60GB capacity.
CLEANING:
Cleaning Cartridge for all IBM 3592 Total-Storage Enterprise Tape
Drive Systems.
LIBRARY PACK - The allround pack
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.
