Product details

The Enterprise Capacity HDD models MG06ACA, with capacities of up to 10 TB and a performance of 7,200 RPM, feature a robust design for business-critical nearline workloads.

The MG06ACA model generation offers a standard industry form factor of 3.5 inches and a height of 26.1 mm, along with advanced format sector technologies for optimal capacity and data reliability. The models support Toshiba's Persistent Write Cache technology, which enhances performance while ensuring the continuity of write operations during sudden power outages. The Enterprise Capacity models of the MG06ACA series, equipped with a 6 Gbit/s SATA interface, require less rack space and reduce the footprint and operational disadvantages of business-critical servers and storage systems.

The MG06ACA series improves sustained transfer rate performance to 237 MiB/s and increases MTTF by 25% compared to the MG05ACA predecessor series. Models with 512e or 4Kn advanced format sector technology are available. The 4Kn sector models (MG06ACAxxxA) provide adequate performance and compatibility with 4K-capable applications and operating environments. The 512e sector models (MG06ACAxxxE) support legacy applications and operating environments that require 512B sector lengths.

The Synology HAT5300-8T 8TB offers a more than generous storage capacity of 8,000 GB. The hard drive performs well in the test - read and write transfer rates are pleasing. The Synology does particularly well with long write processes of large files. The price-performance ratio is absolutely top.
