A data center may include a tape library rack module along with rack computer systems. The rack computer systems may be configured to provide computing capacity within a data center environment. In some embodiments, the tape library rack module may include an enclosure encompassing an interior of the tape library rack module, a rack within the interior, and a tape library unit mounted on the rack. The tape library rack unit may include tape cartridges configured to store data within a tape environment that is different than the data center environment. The tape library rack unit may be within a portion of the interior that is enclosed such that it is environmentally isolated from the data center environment. In some examples, the tape library rack module may include a cooling unit and/or a humidifier unit, which may provide the tape environment to the environmentally isolated portion of the interior of the tape library rack module.

A disc library storage system and a disc cartridge thereof are provided. The disc library storage system includes a disc library, a disc drive tower, a disc transport device and a disc changing device. The disc library accommodates multiple discs. The disc drive tower accommodates multiple disc drives. The disc drives read data of the discs. The disc transport device moves the discs from the disc library to the disc drive tower and to the disc library. The disc changing device places a disc cartridge including an outer casing and a disc tray. The disc tray accommodates at least one replacement disc. The disc changing device has a pull-out state, in which the disc tray is received in the outer casing, and a close state, in which the disc tray is drawn from the outer casing and the disc transport device unloads the replacement disc from the disc tray.

The disc device that includes a disc tray which stores a plurality of stacked discs, a tray carrier which transports the disc tray, and a disc selector which supplies one disc of the plurality of discs stacked on the disc tray to a drive unit. The disc selector includes a disc selector spindle that supports the plurality of discs, a disc press on which an upper surface of an uppermost disc of the plurality of discs supported by the disc selector spindle abuts, a displacement amount detection mechanism that detects a displacement amount of the disc press displaced according to thicknesses of the plurality of supported discs, and a thickness detection unit that detects a thickness of each of the plurality of discs based on the detected displacement amount of the disc press.

A recording tape cartridge includes a case that is formed by a first half in which a first peripheral wall is erected around a top plate and a second half in which a second peripheral wall is erected around a bottom plate being joined to each other in a state where the first peripheral wall and the second peripheral wall are butted against each other and that stores a reel on which the recording tape is wound; and a label surface formed by a first half label surface of the first peripheral wall and a second half label surface of the second peripheral wall on a side opposite to a loading direction of the case to a drive device, and a one-dimensional barcode on which individual identification information is recorded is printed only on the second half label surface.
