Toshiba MG09SCA18TA Hard Drive - MG09 18 TB 3.5" Internal SAS (12Gb/s SAS) Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) Method Server, Storage System Device Supported 7200rpm 550 TB TBW 4Kn Format

The MG09 Series provides 18 TB of conventional magnetic recording (CMR) capacity. The industry-standard 3.5-inch 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.

Toshiba's leadership in precision industrial laser welding technology is put to use to permanently seal helium inside the 9-disk mechanics. 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. Available with either a SATA 6.0 Gbit/s or a 12.0 Gbit/s SAS interface , the MG09 Series models integrate easily into standard 3.5-inch drive bays to help reduce the footprint and operational burden of cloud-scale storage infrastructure, File and Object storage systems, and business critical servers and storage systems.
