A 12 TB, 7200 rpm 3.5" internal hard drive with a SAS interface and 256 MB buffer for nearline storage

  • 12 TB capacity stores massive datasets
  • SAS 12Gb/s interface enables fast enterprise throughput
  • 7200 rpm spindle delivers consistent nearline performance
  • 256 MB buffer smooths heavy random workloads

12 TB SAS Nearline Drive

The Toshiba MG07SCA12TE is a 12 TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for nearline workloads. It spins at 7200 rpm and provides a 256 MB buffer over a SAS 12Gb/s interface. The drive is supplied new in retail or OEM packaging.

Suited for High-Capacity Arrays

This drive suits storage arrays and servers that need large-capacity SAS storage with sustained throughput. It is not for systems that require a different physical form factor or a non-SAS host interface. Buyers needing faster random-access performance should consider solid-state alternatives.

Questions about this item

Will my SAS host bus adapter or RAID controller need to support SAS 12Gb/s for this MG07SCA12TE to operate at full speed?

Yes, the drive uses a SAS 12Gb/s interface, so the controller must support that link rate to achieve maximum throughput.

Can I mix this 7200 rpm SAS drive with older 6Gb/s SAS drives on the same backplane?

The drive will negotiate down to 6Gb/s on a 6Gb/s backplane, but all drives on that segment will then run at the slower speed.
