2 TB enterprise desktop drive

The Toshiba MG03ACA200 is a 2 TB 3.5 inch internal hard drive spinning at 7200 RPM with a 64 MB cache. It connects through a SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface and is built for continuous 24x7 operation in desktop and entry server environments. Rotational Vibration Technology helps maintain performance when multiple drives share a chassis. The bare drive ships in retail or OEM packaging with a two year limited warranty.

Suited for always-on storage arrays

This drive suits builders who need reliable bulk storage for NAS units, DVR systems or workstation arrays that run around the clock. The enterprise feature set and vibration tolerance make it a good fit for multi-bay enclosures. Buyers who want faster random access for an operating system boot drive or who need a compact 2.5 inch form factor for a laptop should look at something else.

SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface. Your motherboard or controller must provide a standard SATA data port and matching power connector for the drive to function. No other interface or protocol is supported by this model.

Questions about this item

How does 7200 RPM affect real-world use?

7200 RPM gives faster data access than slower desktop drives, cutting load times for operating systems, applications and large files during everyday work.

What does SATA 6.0 Gb/s limit in practice?

The SATA 6.0 Gb/s link sets the maximum interface speed, so burst transfers cannot exceed this bandwidth even though the drive's internal cache is 64 MB.

Will this 3.5" drive fit my desktop bay?

The drive uses the standard 3.5" form factor and mounts in any desktop bay or tray designed for 3.5" SATA hard drives.
