TOSHIBA LAUNCHES 18TB MG09 SERIES HARD DISK DRIVES
KUALA LUMPUR, Feb. 18 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has unveiled the 18TB MG09 Series HDD, Toshiba’s first HDD models with energy-assisted magnetic recording.
The MG09 Series features Toshiba’s third-generation, 9-disk helium-sealed design and Toshiba’s innovative Flux Control – Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording (FC-MAMR) technology.
It advances Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) density to 2TB per disk, achieving a total capacity of 18TB.
With 12.5 per cent more capacity than prior 16TB models, 18TB MG09 CMR drives are compatible with the widest range of applications and operating systems.
The MG09 are adapted to mixed random and sequential read and write workloads in both cloud-scale and traditional data centre use cases.
The MG09 features 7,200rpm performance, a 550TB per year workload rating, and a choice of SATA and SAS interfaces – all in a power-efficient helium-sealed industry-standard, 3.5-inch form factor.
The MG09 Series further illustrates Toshiba’s commitment to advancing HDD design to meet the evolving needs for storage devices in cloud-scale servers and Object and File storage infrastructure.
Sample shipments are expected to start sequentially at the end of March 2021.
