SUPERMICRO® QUALIFIES TOSHIBA HIGH PERFORMANCE, ENERGY
EFFICIENT DRIVES FOR ENTERPRISE SERVER AND STORAGE SOLUTIONS
Toshiba enterprise drives provide customers with maximized performance with power
efficiency
IRVINE, Calif., — June 25, 2013 — Toshiba’s Storage Products Business Unit of Toshiba
America Electronic Components, Inc., a committed technology leader, today announced that
Supermicro Computer, Inc., a global leader in delivering advanced computing solutions to the
enterprise, has qualified two Toshiba enterprise hard disk drive (HDDs) series. As part of
Supermicro’s storage offerings, customers will now be able to deploy Toshiba drives in either
enterprise server or storage systems.
The qualified drives include:
•

MG03ACA/MG03ACAY/MG03SCA/MG03SCP enterprise-class: 3.5-inch hard disk
drives (HDD) series includes both SATA models – the MG03ACA400 and the
MG3ACA400Y – and SAS models – MG03SCA400 and the MG03SCP400 – and all
deliver 4TB1 of storage, the company’s largest capacity to date. The MG Series is
perfectly suited for RAID storage and arrays, tiered virtual infrastructures for public and
private cloud deployments, archives, and disk-based backup and data protection
solutions. In addition, the MG Series includes power management features designed to
reduce power consumption during off-peak activity periods, helping to reduce operating
costs and increase efficiency.

•

AL13SE enterprise-class: 2.5-inch 6Gb/s SAS interface HDD series offer capacities
ranging from 900GB1 to 300GB. Designed for even the most demanding mission-critical
applications, the AL13SE series features an operating reliability rating of 2,000,000
power-on hours2, a 25 percent increase over prior-generation drives.

“As corporations increasingly demand faster computing solutions and access to data,
enterprises need to maximize both storage performance and efficiency while keeping costeffectiveness in mind,” said Joel Hagberg, vice president of marketing at Toshiba’s Storage
Products Business Unit. “Toshiba and Supermicro have partnered to deliver advanced storage
solutions to enterprise customers in an effort to help satisfy the increasing demand for highperforming and efficient enterprise storage.”
“Enterprise and data center customers need scalable storage solutions that offer not only
increased performance and capacity but also the highest levels of energy efficiency,” said Wally
Liaw, Vice President, Sales International at Supermicro. “Supermicro meets this challenge with
the widest range of solutions including energy efficient 1U, 2U, 3U storage servers to our 4U
FatTwin featuring 8x 3.5” hot-swap HDDs per U and new high capacity 4U Double-Sided
Storage server featuring 72x external 3.5” hot-swap HDDs. Combined with Toshiba’s latest
enterprise-class, high performance, energy efficient HDDs, Supermicro offers the industry
maximum flexibility to deploy solutions matching their exact application requirements.”

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.
Mean time to failure (MTTF) is not a guarantee or estimate of product life; it is a statistical value related to mean failure rates for a
large number of products, which may not accurately reflect actual operation.
