Hence if a 2400 feet tape has a data recording density of 800 bpi its storage capacity will be 2400+ 12 inches +800 bpi =23+ 10’ bytes = 23 giga bytes. note that. this is the (total it storage for).? (capacity) of the tape. its actual storage capacity storage available for storing user data, is much less, due to the use of IBGs. In fact, the actual storage capacity of a tape may be anywhere from 35% to 70% of its the total storage capacity for the depending-on the data storage-organization plan.
