Months after Elon Musk's DOGE crusade to wipe it out, LTO tape storage is bigger than ever. It is tempting to write off tape storage as relics from a bygone era but its recent performance says otherwise. With 176.5 exabytes shipped in 2024 — up 15.4% year over year — LTO tape is carving out a strategic niche in the surge of AI and ML workloads.

TL;DR
⚙️ Record 176.5 EB shipped in 2024
🔐 Tape offers cost‑effective, long‑term durability
📈 Fueled by AI/ML archival demand
🚀 LTO roadmap plans up to 576 TB per cartridge
