Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation, a committed technology leader, today announced its new Enterprise Capacity 14 TB and 12 TB helium-sealed SAS HDD models. The MG07SCA Series features 7,200 rpm performance, a SAS 12Gbit Interface, and Advanced Format Sector Technology. The hard disk drive boasts an industry-leading, 9-disk helium-sealed design and 14 TB of Conventional Magnetic Recording (CMR) capacity for optimum compatibility. Toshiba's helium-sealed design fits into industry standard 3.5-inch drive bays. A 12 TB model is also included in the Series offering.

The innovative 9-disk helium-sealed design utilizes Toshiba's precision laser welding process, and a special top-cover design seals helium inside the drive offering high capacity and low power profile to the product. The SAS interface provides 12 Gbits transfer rate performance and dual port capability for the data-path redundancy preferred by many storage solutions designers. The 14 TB SAS model offers approximately a 40% increase in maximum capacity over Toshiba's prior MG06 10 TB SAS models.



"Toshiba's new helium-sealed 14 TB and 12 TB SAS models expand the choices available to our cloud-scale and storage solutions customers. By utilizing an innovative 9-disk design, Toshiba provides both SAS and SATA models at an industry leading 14TB capacity," said Shuji Takaoka, General Manager of Storage Products Sales & Marketing Division at Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation. "Our cloud-scale and storage solutions customers strongly value the power-efficient storage capacity enabled by Toshiba's advanced 9-disk helium-sealed mechanics. By using helium to reduce the aerodynamic drag on the spinning media platters, the Toshiba 14TB model is able to provide approximately 55% (W/G) lower operating power profile over the previous 10TB model, resulting in TCO benefits for today's dense storage platforms and cloud-scale service-solution architectures. Only helium-sealed HDD technology is able to deliver these customers' TCO benefits with an amazingly low acquisition cost per GB."

Toshiba continues to expand its HDD product offerings with higher storage capacity and performance. The MG07SCA Series further illustrates Toshiba's capability to advance the design of HDD storage devices for cloud-scale server and storage infrastructure, and to realize more cost-effective data-protection, data-retention, content serving and digital archiving.

The 14TB and 12TB helium-sealed SAS HDD models are available for sampling today.
