Desktop enterprise hard drive

The Toshiba MK1002TSKB is a 3.5 inch internal hard drive built for desktop systems that need 1 TB of storage on a SATA 3.0Gb/s interface. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 64 MB cache and carries an enterprise-grade NAND flash memory type. The drive has been erased to DoD 5220.22 M compliance and tested for working condition.

Capacity and headroom

One terabyte provides room for operating systems, applications and large media libraries on a single volume. The 7200 RPM spindle and 64 MB cache keep sequential throughput steady for everyday workloads. Random access latency of 9.5 ms seek and 4.17 ms rotational delay limits performance on heavily threaded or transaction-heavy tasks.

Thermals noise and power

Mechanical operation at 7200 RPM produces audible seek noise and measurable vibration in quiet chassis. The SATA 3.0Gb/s interface draws modest power during sustained reads and writes. Heat output is typical for a 3.5 inch enterprise drive and requires standard case airflow to remain within safe operating temperatures.

Questions about this item

Will the SATA 3.0Gb/s interface on this MK1002TSKB work with my older motherboard that only supports SATA 1.5Gb/s?

Yes, the SATA 3.0Gb/s interface is backward compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s ports, so the drive will function at the slower speed on your older motherboard.

How can I verify the 7200 RPM spindle speed and 9.5ms average seek time are performing correctly after installation?

Run a benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark or HD Tune; the sequential throughput and access-time results should align with a 7200 RPM drive with 9.5ms seek time.

Does the retail box include a SATA data cable and mounting screws, or do I need to buy them separately?

The drive is sold as OEM or retail packing may vary; typically only the bare drive is included, so you should source a SATA data cable and 3.5" mounting screws separately.
