摘要:
We discuss the possibility of attaining more than 1 Gb/in(2) recording in helical scanning tape storage system based on obliquely oriented metal evaporated tapes. A demonstration of 1 Gb/in(2) recording using an inductive MIG type head is described. Other experimental results show that the obliquely oriented Co-O tapes are endowed with recording resolution potential beyond several Gb/in(2), but playback signal-to-noise challenges still remain, Applying more sensitive magneto-resistive heads in the helical scanning tape system requires significant innovation in the system to overcome crucial issues of contact recording as well as re-optimization of the magnetic properties of the tape.
