In the probability distribution calculated from TDSage, TDSenv, and TC, the magnetic tape has the probability Pfail of equal to or less than 0.2%, in which the absolute value of ΔSB exceeds 0.3 μm. TDSage is a maximum absolute value of a difference between the servo band interval obtained before a predetermined storage and the servo band interval obtained after the storage, TDSenv is a value calculated by multiplying a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of the servo band interval respectively obtained under five predetermined environments by ½, TC is a value calculated by multiplying TDStens by 0.5 N, and TDStens is a ratio of a change in the servo band interval to a change in tension calculated from the servo band interval respectively obtained under five predetermined environments by applying a plurality of different tensions in the longitudinal direction of the magnetic tape.
