Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH has announced that it has launched the new MG10F Series 22TB HDD, a conventional magnetic recording (CMR) HDD that leverages Toshiba’s 10-disk helium-sealed design. As a key building block in cloud and storage infrastructure, the MG10F 22TB delivers 10% more capacity than Toshiba’s prior generation 20TB model.
“Designed and engineered to meet the growing data storage needs of its largest customers, the MG10F 22TB HDDs are compatible with a wide range of applications and workloads for both cloud-scale and traditional data-center use cases. The increased capacity of the 22TB MG10F helps cloud-scale infrastructure build higher storage densities at a lower TCO,” the company said.
The MG10F Series HDD features 7,200rpm performance, a 550TB per year workload rating, and a choice of SAS and SATA interfaces—all in a power-efficient helium-sealed, industry-standard 3.5-inch form factor. Sample shipments of the 22TB MG10F Series HDDs start immediately for the SAS interface and in the fourth calendar quarter of this year for the SATA interface
