1. A magnetic tape device comprising:

  • a magnetic tape; and

    a reproducing head,wherein the reproducing head is a magnetic head including a tunnel magnetoresistance effect type element as a reproducing element,the magnetic tape includes a non-magnetic support, and a magnetic layer including ferromagnetic powder and a binding agent on the non-magnetic support,a center line average surface roughness Ra measured regarding a surface of the magnetic layer is equal to or smaller than 2.0 nm,a logarithmic decrement acquired by a pendulum viscoelasticity test performed regarding the surface of the magnetic layer is equal to or smaller than 0.050, andΔ

    SFD in a longitudinal direction of the magnetic tape calculated by Expression 1 is equal to or smaller than 0.50,
    Δ

    SFD=SFD25°
