Product Overview of the Toshiba MD04ACA400
The Toshiba MD04ACA400 is an internal hard disk drive designed for use in desktop computers, servers, and other storage-intensive applications. With a storage capacity of 4 terabytes (TB), a 7200 RPM spindle speed, and a 64 MB buffer, this hard drive offers fast and reliable data access for large data sets, high-resolution video, and other demanding workloads.
Capacity
The Toshiba MD04ACA400 has a storage capacity of 4 terabytes (TB), which means it can store a vast amount of data, including documents, photos, music, videos, and more. This makes it an ideal choice for individuals and organizations that require large amounts of storage space, such as content creators, media companies, and data centers.
Spindle Speed
The spindle speed of a hard drive refers to the rate at which the disks inside the drive rotate. The Toshiba MD04ACA400 has a spindle speed of 7200 revolutions per minute (RPM), which is considered a high-speed rating for a hard drive. This means that data can be accessed and written to the drive quickly, resulting in faster overall system performance.
Buffer Size
The buffer size of a hard drive refers to the amount of memory that is available to temporarily store data as it is being transferred to or from the drive. The Toshiba MD04ACA400 has a buffer size of 64 megabytes (MB), which is larger than the average buffer size for most hard drives. This means that the drive can handle large data transfers more efficiently, resulting in improved performance.
Interface
The interface of a hard drive refers to the type of connection it uses to communicate with the computer or other device it is connected to. The Toshiba MD04ACA400 uses a Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) interface, which is a common interface used in modern computers and other devices. This interface supports data transfer rates of up to 3 gigabits per second (Gbps), which is sufficient for most storage applications.
Form Factor
The form factor of a hard drive refers to its physical size and shape. The Toshiba MD04ACA400 has a form factor of 3.5 inches, which is the most common form factor for desktop computer hard drives. This means that it can be easily installed in most desktop computer cases and can be used as a primary or secondary storage device.
Compatibility
The Toshiba MD04ACA400 is compatible with most modern operating systems, including Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. It can be used as a primary or secondary storage device in desktop computers, workstations, and servers. However, it is important to ensure that your computer or other device supports the SATA interface and can accommodate a 3.5-inch form factor hard drive.
Reliability
The Toshiba MD04ACA400 is designed to be a reliable and durable storage solution. It features advanced technologies, such as Ramp Load technology, which helps protect the drive from damage during transportation or accidental drops. It also has a built-in error correction code (ECC) algorithm that helps detect and correct errors that may occur during data transfer.
Overall, the Toshiba MD04ACA400 is a high-performance internal hard disk drive that offers a large storage capacity, fast spindle speed, and generous buffer size. Its SATA interface and 3.5-inch form factor make it compatible with most modern computers and other devices, while its reliability features ensure that your data is safe and secure. Whether you’re a content creator, media company, or data center, the Toshiba MD04ACA400 is a reliable and efficient storage solution that can meet your needs.
