As big data drives demand for more distributed storage in the cloud and on-premises, enterprise server and storage systems need to be built using trusted solutions. Toshiba’s Enterprise Capacity Hard Drive – MG Series offers formatted capacities as high as 14 TB with interface options including SATA and SAS, delivering 24/7 operation at a workload of 550 TB/year. The MG Series is ideal for enterprise storage arrays and industrial server and storage systems.

It provides the capacity and advanced technologies to meet the special demands of data center and cloud-scale infrastructures. Regular hard disk drives can impact the performance of a multi-bay system by generating 'knock-on' vibration. The MG Series ensures high reliability by minimizing vibration effects through advanced control and sensing technology. Multiple sensors detect the slightest shock, and built-in rotational vibration (RV) sensors compensate for any rotational vibration detected, eliminating the possibility of 'knock-on' vibration in multi-bay server systems.

Your data is critical, so don't risk it. Toshiba's advanced technologies have been developed to add security and assurance for the enterprise user. With persistent write cache technology, your data is safe in the event of an interruption in power supply during a write to the hard disk. Data is saved in the large flash-based cache and written to the disk when power is restored. Toshiba’s innovative stable platter technology minimizes vibrations by stabilizing the motor shaft at both ends, which improves tracking accuracy and maximizes performance during read and write operations. In addition, Toshiba’s dynamic cache technology, a self-contained cache algorithm with on-board buffer management, optimizes how the cache is allocated during read/write to provide the high-level performance demanded by real-time domains.
