About Toshiba MG09

Rethink Your Data Storage Toshiba Enterprise HDDs
The MG09 Series features Toshiba's third-generation, 9-disk Helium-sealed design to advance Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) density to 2TB per disk, achieving a total capacity of upto 18TB. The industry-standard 3.5-inch form-factor provides 7200rpm performance, and integrates easily into cloud-scale storage infrastructure, business-critical servers and storage, and File and Object storage solutions.

The massive upto 18TB 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.

Massive Capacity
Up to 18 TB of Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) capacity. Available in SATA or SAS models with 512e or 4Kn Advanced Format Sector Technology.

Enterprise Grade Reliability
Includes Toshiba Persistent Write Cache Technology for Data-Loss Protection in Sudden Power-Loss Events (512e models).

Industry Leading Mechanical Design
9-disk design for superior storage density.

Toshiba Precision Laser Welding Technology
Seals helium inside the 9-disk mechanics to reduce aerodynamic drag and deliver a lower operational power profile.

Lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
