Abstract
A magnetic storage medium includes a magnetic layer of a Co alloy of a system Co—Cr—Pt—B—Cu, wherein the magnetic layer has a thickness t and a remnant magnetic flux density Br satisfying a relationship (t×Br) 2.0 nT·m≦(t×Br)≦7.0 nT·m, wherein the Co alloy contains, in addition to Co, Cr with a concentration &bgr; of 20-26 at % (20 at %≦&bgr;≦26 at %), Pt with a concentration &ggr; of 6-20 at % (6 at %≦&ggr;≦20 at %), B with a concentration &dgr; of 1-7 at % (1 at %≦&dgr;≦7 at %), and Cu with a concentration &egr; of 2-7 at % (2 at %≦&egr;≦7 at %).
