3.5 inch SAS hard drive silver metal enclosure

Toshiba

Toshiba MG07SCA12TA 12 TB 7200 RPM SAS 12.0 Gbit/s 3.5" internal hard drive

SKU CH-8VW9-WS2PX MPN MG07SCA12TA

A 12 TB 3.5-inch SAS 12.0 Gbit/s hard drive spinning at 7200 RPM with a 256 MiB buffer

  • 12 TB capacity stores massive datasets
  • 7200 RPM spindle delivers fast sequential throughput
  • SAS 12.0 Gbit/s interface enables high-speed host connectivity
  • 256 MiB buffer smooths burst workloads
  • 5 inch form factor fits standard drive bays

Enterprise Storage Drive

The Toshiba MG07SCA12TA is a 12 TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for enterprise and desktop workloads. It spins at 7200 RPM and connects through a SAS 12.0 Gbit/s interface with a 256 MiB buffer. This combination delivers sustained throughput for bulk data storage and archival tasks. The drive arrives new in bulk packaging suitable for system integrators.

Suitable For Server And Raid Arrays

This drive suits administrators deploying high-capacity storage in servers, RAID arrays or workstations that support the SAS 12.0 Gbit/s interface. It is not for platforms that lack a SAS host bus adapter or backplane capable of 12.0 Gbit/s operation. Builders needing a different physical size or a lower spindle speed should consider other models.

SAS 12.0 Gbit/s Interface Determines Compatibility

The single specification that decides fitment is the SAS 12.0 Gbit/s interface. The system must provide a compatible SAS controller or backplane running at that signalling rate. Without it the drive cannot communicate or achieve its rated performance. Verify the host interface before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the 12.0 Gbit/s SAS interface work with my existing 6 Gbit/s SAS controller?

The drive supports SAS 12.0 Gbit/s and will negotiate down to 6 Gbit/s on an older controller, though sustained throughput will be limited to the controller speed.

How can I verify the 7200 RPM spindle speed and 256 MiB buffer are active after installation?

Use a tool such as smartctl or the controller BIOS to read the drive identity page; it will report 7200 RPM rotation rate and 256 MiB cache size.

Does the 3.5-inch bulk package include mounting screws or a SAS data cable?

The bulk pack contains only the bare 3.5-inch drive; mounting screws and a SAS data cable must be sourced separately.
