Fujifilm Offers Data Centers New High Density Tape Storage Solution

VALHALLA, NY--(Marketwire - May 5, 2009) - FUJIFILM Recording Media U.S.A., Inc. today announced the availability of its latest data center storage solution, the Fujifilm Gemtrac High Density Tape Library by Russ Bassett which can store more tapes per square foot than any other media storage system available. Addressing the space constraints commonly faced by data centers, Fujifilm's Gemtrac can reduce floor space up to 70% compared to open tape racks, boosting productivity, increasing storage efficiency and reducing the overall amount of storage needed by tape librarians.

"The amount of floor space that data centers will save is dramatic," said Daniel Greenberg, New Product Manager, Fujifilm Recording Media U.S.A., Inc. "One 10' wide Fujifilm Gemtrac unit can house the same amount of tapes as one 33' row of open racks, potentially reducing the cost of storage space, making it an ideal solution for in-house vaulting."

Fully constructed of heavy-duty furniture grade steel, each Fujifilm Gemtrac consists of two self contained opposing cabinets linked by overhead tracks engineered to safely suspend heavy loads. With a small footprint of 25ft and facing pull-out drawers, one Gemtrac unit will store up to 4,060 LTO data cartridges stored in a case, reducing library size which increases productivity through simplified accessibility and minimized walking time. Furthermore, each tape is stored in its own individual slot to ensure file integrity and to guarantee that each cartridge is safely housed, neatly organized and protected from dust, light and sprinkler systems. For additional security, an optional gang lock is also available.

In order to meet the diverse and ever changing storage needs of data centers, Fujifilm's Gemtrac high density tape libraries also offer flexible configuration options and can be double stacked for maximized space and a minimized footprint.

In 2007, Russ Bassett worked exclusively with Fujifilm to design Fujifilm's Data Tape Carousel, which is designed to store 768 LTO data cartridges, 768 half inch cartridges or 672 DLT cartridges. With full swivel casters underneath, the carousel can be easily moved anywhere in the data library quickly and safely.

The Fujifilm Gemtrac High Density Tape Library is available now through Fujifilm's channel of distributors. Configurations include LTO, DLT, 3592, 3590, 3480 and 9x40. Starting MSRP is $15,756.
