It's roughly 88 times what you can fit on the current generation LTO-6 tapes.

It won't be on your store shelves just yet, but it's been done in a laboratory. It's also possible that the capacity in the next round of LTO products may be artificially limited in order to maintain compatibility with prior generations.
