    Abstract: A magnetic tape cartridge includes a case that accommodates a magnetic tape on which a plurality of servo bands and a plurality of data bands are formed, servo patterns being recorded in the servo bands, and a memory provided in the case. The memory stores servo pattern interval-related information related to a servo pattern interval determined for each of the plurality of data bands included in the magnetic tape. The servo pattern interval is commonly used for a plurality of division areas obtained by dividing the data band in a width direction of the magnetic tape, and is a representative interval between a first servo pattern and a second servo pattern.
