Toshiba MG Series 18TB (SATA, 7200 RPM)

The industry-standard 3,5 form-factor provides 7200 rpm performance, and integrates easily into cloud-scale storage infrastructure, business-critical servers and storage, and File and Object storage solutions.

The helium-sealed design reduces aerodynamic drag to significantly lower the drive's operational power profile, which helps deliver critical TCO benefits for data center infrastructures. The sealed design and corrosion resistant electronics also mitigate against life-time failure modes due to air bourn pollutants and other environmental factors.

The massive 18 TB CMR capacity is delivered using Toshiba's innovative Flux Control Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording (FC-MAMR) technology. These advances help the MG09 Series to achieve optimum storage capacity and application compatibility, with unsurpassed data reliability.
