Needless to say, Fujifilm is citing generative AI and other AI-related services as major drivers behind the growing demand for magnetic tape

LTO-10 tapes were released earlier this year, providing a native capacity of 40 terabytes.

Again: It depends.

I would use it as a storage provider on which I would put an encrypted veracrypt drive (or whatevee is the good stuff).
Or as an off-site storage provider for my backup.

As a single atorage site? Nah. Too expensive for my home needs.
For a business? If you can't afford to drop 1200€ for 3x 4TB SSDs to bring your data backups off-site? Pretty good offering.
And the immutability is a plus as well.

    Our clients use S3 as an offsite storage. About 2-3TB (deduplicated is possible) in storage usually.
    Client is small and medium doctor offices.
