Toshiba MG09ACA Internal HDD Overview
The Toshiba 18TB MG09 Series Cloud-Scale Capacity 7200 rpm SATA III 3.5" Internal Hard Drive features 9-disk design, providing 18TB of conventional magnetic recording (CMR) storage capacity and 7200 rpm performance for optimal application compatibility and data reliability. The massive 18TB CMR capacity is delivered using Toshiba's innovative Flux Control Microwave Assisted Magnetic Recording (FC-MAMR) technology. Toshiba used precision industrial laser welding technology to 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 3.5" form factor integrates easily into cloud-scale storage infrastructure, business-critical servers and storage, and File- and Object-based storage solutions.
