Toshiba MG Series Enterprise 10TB 3.5’’ SATA 6Gbit/s Internal HDD 7200RPM 550TB/year 24/7 Operation. MG06ACA10TE

The most important part of this is honesty! I was concerned about the price being too low for these units considering the market but viola! The drives arrived in sealed packs, there was a vendor card in the box which made me panic for a minute but after installing and running lslbk and drive info commands in linux, all 3 drives report as brand new! The only hours on them are the 9 that I have put on them since I got them up and running. Buy in confidence I'll go back for more! Thank you.

It was sent quickly, works as designed, priced right, easy to add to my system, excellent quality for the price, very quiet, and easy to connect! It’s been ages since I used hitachi drives but their enterprise level drives really deliver! I’m impressed on how smooth it works, and how easy was to connect and use all that extra storage!!! It works cool and hasn’t shown any signs of errors so far! It’s timing in a desktop with tons of pictures, replacing a 2TB drive that now is the backup. I’m used to other brands and had just forgotten hitachi, but highly recommend them based on my experience with this one! Seller packed it very well, sent all the paperwork for warranty, and make all look neat! Kudos! Overall, a great experience with the seller and the product! I hope this helps you to make an educated decision! Let me know!

Installed it, formatted it, and it died while I was loading some files onto it for the first time. Started making grinding noises, and I couldn't even run a diagnostic on it.

I found one of these, left over from a previous project. It had operated under heavy use for several years and sat on a shelf for several more years. I found (removing old data) that was still shockingly reliable even after other HDs of the same size and age were dying or dead. So I decided that when I put together my new NAS I use the same brand and type if available. Turns out, with a few improvements, they still sell the same kind! So I populated my NAS with more of these. I was pleased not only with performance, but with the reasonable price! I highly recommend them.

When two of my Seagate Ironwolf drives in my NAS started failing I purchased two new WD Red Plus drives to replace them. One of those was DOA and I purchased this Toshiba because it was the quickest to deliver. Installation and resilver went as expected - what wasn't expected based on the reviews here was how quiet this drive was compared to both the SG IronWolf and WD Red Drives in the pool - noticeably less vibration as well. Hopefully that translates to a long service life.

Installed this in my ubiquiti udm pro. It is a little loud but has been working fine for over a month. For the price it is a good deal I would say.

I use this drive in an external enclosure to download files to it then move them to another location. It has been working very well and has been very reliable since it arrived. As for durability, that is to be determined as time goes by, but I don't expect any issues with that. HDD issues usually show up within the first month of service.

Works great with Ugreen NAS, makes some noise but it is working properly .

Utiliser dans une station de travail hautes performances audio/video. Bien plus discret que la serie MD. Super produit.

Super bien emballé avec un carton, des mousses de 2 cm, une coque plastique, un sachet anti-statique original. Le disque en lui même est une merveille. Certes il fait un peu de bruit mais c'est mon 3ème et il a marqué out-of-the-box à la parfection pas comme les 2 Seagate que j'ai retournés qui étaient arrivés cassés.

No issues so far

The hard drive comes with a five-year warranty, but failed after two years unfortunately. Would not purchase again.

It’s an enterprise grade drive which is meant for heavy duty read and write cycles. I trust HDDs over SSDs for long term data storage although I use both. This has become my main backup drive and it has tonnes of space for redundancy especially for my older drives and ssds. For longevity HDDs are best, although ssds actually last longer. However, since you need to keep ssds plugged in over time to help them retain data, these issues don’t exist with a sparingly used HDD which only fails when the mechanical parts fail. And I already have an external Toshiba 3 tb that has been running for over 14 years now. Speeds are very good and sound levels are bare minimum . I trust the brand and it’s Japanese so yeah, go for it. Definitely value for money when you consider I paid around 2000/tb for an enterprise grade drive.
