16TB N300 NAS 3.5 Inch SATA Internal Hard Drive. 24/7 Operation, Supports 1-8 Bay Systems, 512 MB Cache, 180TB/Year Workload, 3 Year Warranty () - Toshiba HDWG31GUZSVA

• RELIABLE ALWAYS-ON OPERATION: NAS systems in small businesses or creative environments often need to be accessed by several users, at different locations, simultaneously. Therefore today's NAS drives must deliver high data transfer rates and simultaneous upload and download 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Offering high reliability and scalability, N300 drives achieve a max. 180 TB/year workload factor, up to 3 times more than convenient desktop hard drives. HIGH DURABILITY AND HEAT PREVENTION: Use of high-endurance components is one of the reasons that the N300 series offers better durability than other conventional hard disk drives. At the same time, automatic adjustment of seek speed to reduce heat during high-temperature operation further improves endurance in demanding situations. HIGH SPEED FOR MULTI-DRIVE ENVIRONMENT: High performance and fast read speed is made possible under high data access loads from multiple users thanks to 512 or 256 MB data buffer. This makes the drive suitable for small businesses and creative professionals looking for solutions to handle high data volumes using multi-RAID NAS environments. OPTIMISED CACHE ALLOCATION: Toshiba’s Dynamic Cache Technology, a self-contained cache algorithm with on-board buffer management, optimizes how the cache is allocated during read/write to provide the high-level performance demanded by real-time domains. REDUCED NOISE AND ENERGY COSTS: The 12 TB to 18 TB N300 NAS Hard Drives use a helium-sealed design, achieving low power consumption while increasing storage density. Toshiba Group’s laser welding technology ensures that the helium remains securely sealed inside the drive enclosure. With the environment in mind, the helium-filled N300 models minimize acoustic output to just 20db (typical) in idle mode. The devices are ideal for large scale server systems allowing for rich scalability of up to 8 drives.
