TOSHIBA harde schijf - MG10ACA20TE - 20 TB - SATA 6 Gbit/s - 512e - 3,5 inch - 7200 tpm - 512 MB cache

The Toshiba MG10 Series enterprise HDD delivers up to 20 TB of capacity in a 3.5-inch, 7200 rpm form factor using a 10-disk helium-sealed design and Flux Control Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording (FC-MAMR™) technology. Available with SATA 6.0 Gbit/s interface and 512e or 4Kn Advanced Format sector options, this drive is intended for cloud-scale storage, file and object systems, and business-critical servers where high capacity, compatibility and reliability are required.

Advantages

The MG10 Series provides very high storage density thanks to a 10-disk CMR design and FC-MAMR technology, enabling 2 TB per platter and a total capacity up to 20 TB. Its helium-sealed mechanics with Toshiba precision laser welding reduce aerodynamic drag and improve power efficiency, lowering operational power per terabyte. The drives include enterprise-grade features such as persistent write cache for data-loss protection on sudden power loss (available for 512e models) and standard SATA connectivity for broad compatibility with existing 3.5-inch drive bays.

How to use

Install the MG10 Series drive into a standard 3.5-inch drive bay in servers or storage enclosures that support SATA 6.0 Gbit/s. Configure the drive in the host system or storage array according to the manufacturer’s instructions, selecting the appropriate sector format (512e or 4Kn) when initializing. Use the drive as part of file, object or block storage pools, and ensure that the enclosure provides adequate cooling and power protection to maintain optimal performance and reliability.

Recommendations

For best results, integrate these drives into systems designed for high-density enterprise storage, monitor drive temperatures and power conditions, and enable appropriate backup and power-loss protection strategies. Choose the 512e variant to take advantage of Persistent Write Cache Technology where supported by the host system.
