Toshiba MQ02ABD100H Hard Disk Drive

INTRODUCTION

Toshiba’s MQ02ABD100H (1TB) and MQ02ABF050H (500GB) 2.5-inch solid-state hybrid drives (SSHD) provide fast SSD-like performance combined with the high capacity of an HDD. Toshiba’s SSHD utilizes a self-learning algorithm that enables the drive to identify the user’s access patterns, allowing frequently used data to be stored in the NAND flash memory cache making it quickly accessible to the host. Likewise, data that is used less often is evicted from the NAND flash memory. Suitable for high-performance gaming, notebook, and mainstream PCs.

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.

“2.5-inch” means the form factor of HDDs. They do not indicate the driver’s physical size.
Read and write speed may vary depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size.
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 1,073,741,824 bytes.
