MG05ACA800x SERIES
ENTERPRISE CAPACITY HDD
The MG05ACA Enterprise Capacity HDD provides 8TB[1] of capacity and 7,200 rpm
performance, in a robust design engineered for nearline business-critical workloads. The
MG05ACA utilizes industry-standard 3.5-inch[2] 26.1 mm height form factor and Advanced
Format sector technologies for optimum capacity and data reliability. This models support
Toshiba Persistent Write Cache technology[3] which helps enhance performance with handling
data in the event of a sudden loss of power. Equipped with SATA 6.0 Gbit/s[4] interface, the
Enterprise Capacity MG05ACA models help save rack space and reduce the footprint and
operational burden of business critical servers and storage systems.
The MG05ACA improves sustained transfer rate performanc e by 12% when compared to the
prior MG04ACA series. 512e or 4Kn Advanced Format sector technology models are
available. 4Kn sector models (MG05ACAxxxA) offer optimum perf ormance and compatibility
with the 4Kn-capable applications and operating environments. 512e sector models
(MG05ACAxxxE) provide support for legacy applications and operating environments that
require 512 byte sector lengths.
APPLICATIONS
• Engineered for Mid-line / Nearline Business Critical
Workloads
• Tier 2 Business-Critical Servers and Storage Systems
• Servers Supporting Application Workloads that Benefit
from High Capacity per Spindle
• Capacity-Optimized Data Center Storage Systems
• Cloud-scale Storage and Server Infrastructure

ENVIRONMENTAL LIMITS
ENVIRONMENTAL FEATURE
[1] Definition of capacity: Toshiba defines a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes, a gigabyte (GB) as 1,000,000,000 bytes and a terabyte (TB) as 1,000,000,000,000
bytes. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1GB = 230 = 1,073,741,824 bytes and therefore shows
less storage capacity. Available storage capacity (including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size, formatting, settings, software and operating
system, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
[2] "2.5-inch" and "3.5-inch" mean the form factor of HDDs or SSDs. They do not indicate drive's physical size.
[3] PWC with PLP is a function to handle the write data that the drive reports "Normal completion" to the host but not being stored to hard disk media yet. The write data
may be written to the commanded LBA on the hard disk media. The un-written data to hard disk media is stored to Flash memory using back up power by PLP when
the power supply to the drive suddenly is shut down. And, after PLP operation, it may be required more time to start up the drive than in case of normal shutdown. 1)
PLP does not secure data in the mode of all the power shutdowns. When power supplies other than recommended procedure are intercepted, data might be lost. 2)
In the power shutdown before it reports on the Write completion, data not anticipated might be lost.
[4] Read and write speed may vary depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size.
[5] MTTF (Mean Time to Failure) is not a guarantee or estimate of product life; it is a statistical value related to mean failure rates for a large number of products which
may not accurately reflect actual operation. Actual operating life of the product may be different from the MTTF.
[6] Workload is defined as the amount of data written, read or verified by commands from host system.
[7] A kibibyte (KiB) means 210, or 1,024 bytes, a mebibyte (MiB) means 220, or 1,048,576 bytes, and a gibibyte (GiB) means 230, or 1,073,471,824 bytes.
[8] Read–modify-write is supported.
[9] Input voltages are specified at the HDD connector side, during HDD ready state.
[10] Make sure the value is not less than -0.3V DC (les s than -0.6V, 0.1ms) when turning on or off the power.
[11] Vibration applied to the HDD is measured at near the mounting screw hole on the frame as much as possible.
[12] At random seek write/read and default on retry setting with log sweep vibration.
[13] At power-off state after installation
[14] Toshiba Storage & Electronic Devices Solutions Company defines "RoHS-Compatible" products as products that either (i) contain no more than a maximum
concentration value of 0.1% by weight in Homogeneous Materials for lead, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polybrominated
diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and of 0.01% by weight in Homogeneous Materials for cadmium; or (ii) fall within any of the application exemptions set forth in the Annex to
the RoHS Directive (Directive 2011/65/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 2011 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in
electrical and electronic equipment). "Homogeneous Material" means a material of uniform composition that cannot be mechanically disjointed (meaning separated,
in principle, by mechanical actions such as unscrewing, cutting, crushing, grinding and/or abrasive processes) into different materials. Examples of "Homogeneous
Materials" would be individual types of plastics, ceramics, glass, metals, alloys, paper, board, resins and coatings.
[15] Toshiba Storage & Electronic Devices Solutions Company defines halogen-free and antimony-free SSD and HDD products as those meeting all of the following
requirements: (a) containing bromine (Br) and chlorine (Cl) at no more than 900 parts per million (ppm) by weight for each element, and containing bromine and
chlorine in an aggregate amount not exceeding 1500 ppm by weight; and (b) containing no more than 1000 ppm antimony (Sb) by weight. For the avoidance of doubt,
Halogen-Free/Antimony-Free SSD or HDD products may not be entirely free of bromine, chlorine, or antimony, and may contain other element of the halogen family.
