  2. Magnetic tape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_tape

    Magnetic tape. 7-inch reel of ¼-inch-wide audio recording tape, typical of consumer use in the 1950s – 70s. Magnetic tape is a medium for magnetic storage made of a thin, magnetizable coating on a long, narrow strip of plastic film. It was developed in Germany in 1928, based on the earlier magnetic wire recording from Denmark.

  3. Magnetic-tape data storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic-tape_data_storage

    Magnetic-tape data storage is a system for storing digital information on magnetic tape using digital recording. Tape was an important medium for primary data storage in early computers, typically using large open reels of 7-track, later 9-track tape. Modern magnetic tape is most commonly packaged in cartridges and cassettes, such as the widely ...

  4. Magnetic storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_storage

    Magnetic storage. Magnetic storage or magnetic recording is the storage of data on a magnetized medium. Magnetic storage uses different patterns of magnetisation in a magnetizable material to store data and is a form of non-volatile memory. The information is accessed using one or more read/write heads.

  5. Linear Tape-Open - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_Tape-Open

    Linear Tape-Open (LTO), also known as the LTO Ultrium format, [1] is a magnetic tape data storage technology used for backup, data archiving, and data transfer. It was originally developed in the late 1990s as an open standards alternative to the proprietary magnetic tape formats available at the time. Upon introduction, LTO rapidly defined the ...

  6. Tape drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tape_drive

    A tape drive is a data storage device that reads and writes data on a magnetic tape. Magnetic-tape data storage is typically used for offline, archival data storage. Tape media generally has a favorable unit cost and long archival stability. A tape drive provides sequential access storage, unlike a hard disk drive, which provides direct access ...

  7. Barium ferrite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barium_ferrite

    Barium ferrite is a highly magnetic material, has a high packing density, [clarification needed] and is a metal oxide. Studies of this material date at least as far back as 1931, [3] and it has found applications in magnetic card strips, speakers, and magnetic tapes. [1]
