The Toshiba MG09ACA16TE supports 24×7 nearline and sustained sequential workloads at 550TB annualized throughput, backed by a 2.5-million-hour MTBF rating. This 16TB enterprise-class hard drive combines conventional magnetic recording (CMR) with proven reliability for mission-critical storage infrastructure. Designed for storage architects and data center IT teams, the MG09ACA delivers consistent performance in hyperscale and mid-market deployments where capacity density and uptime are non-negotiable.
Built on Toshiba's helium-sealed hermetic design, the MG09ACA16TE (Part Number: MG09ACA16TE) achieves 261MB/s sustained transfer rates across its 9-platter configuration while operating continuously at 7,200 RPM. The drive features persistent write-cache protection with capacitor-backed power-loss safeguards and rotational vibration compensation via RV sensors—critical for dense rack deployments. Its 512MB buffer and 512e/4Kn logical sector support ensure compatibility across legacy and modern environments. The 3.5-inch form factor fits standard data center chassis; at 26.1mm height, it integrates seamlessly into 1U and 2U systems. Toshiba rates the drive for -40°C to 70°C non-operating storage and 5°C to 60°C operational ranges, accommodating diverse facility conditions across the region.
