Toshiba MG09 12TB 7.2K SAS 12G LFF 512e Hard Drive

The Toshiba MG09 12TB 7.2K SAS 12G LFF 512e Hard Drive, MPN MG09SCA12TE, is a 12TB SAS disk with the 512e sector format. It spins at 7200 rpm, has a 512 MB cache and connects at 12 Gbps in a 3.5in body.

The 512e layout is the one most controllers and operating systems handle without extra steps. That makes it the lower-risk choice when you are adding capacity to an existing SAS server or shelf, because it avoids dependence on native large-sector support.

SAS compatibility is the other key point. This drive belongs in enclosures with SAS backplanes or expanders. If your system accepts only SATA, look at a SATA model instead.

With 12TB per bay, it suits nearline pools, backup targets and archives where slot count is the limit.

The MG09SCA12TE is available new or refurbished, and both conditions come with a choice of 1 year or 3 years of warranty. No used option is listed. Send us your quantity and platform, and we will reply with pricing and availability.
