Press Release Toshiba Launches Next-Generation Solid State Hybrid Drives Thinner, lighter, faster drives for ultrathin notebooks and slim line PCs Düsseldorf, Germany, 20th June, 2013 - Toshiba Electronics Europe (TEE) has launched its next-generation solid state hybrid drives (SSHD) that combine SSD-like performance with large HDD capacities. The new drives squeeze 8GiB1 of NAND storage and up to 500GB2 of HDD storage into a svelte 2.5-inch (6.4 cm) form factor with 7.0mm height, ideal for highperformance and ultrathin notebooks, and slim line PCs. Both the MQ01ABF050H (500GB) and MQ01ABF032H (320GB) are thinner and lighter than previous models. The SSHDs achieve overall PC Mark Vantage scores of about 20,000 – making them ideal for users who don’t want to compromise on performance or capacity. 1 One Gibibyte (GiB) = 1,073,741,824 (230) byte. One Gigabyte (1GB) means 109 = 1,000,000,000 bytes. One Terabyte (1TB) means 1012 = 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 1TB = 240 = 1,099,511,627,776 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 and other factors. 2 . Press Release Media transfer rates reach 1288Mbit/s while noise levels stay exceptionally low – maximum seek noise is just 21dB. In addition, the combination of the SATA 3.0 interface and small form-factor ensure compatibility with most PCs and laptops. An updated self-learning algorithm saves regularly accessed files to the SLC NAND chip to ensure faster data retrieval. Likewise, data that is used less regularly is moved from the NAND chip to the HDD for long-term storage. This algorithm enables the hybrid drive to improve PC boot speeds compared to standard HDDs and enhance speed and component reliability in digital video recording applications. In addition, the self-learning mechanism continues to develop throughout the lifespan of the drive, constantly improving its performance. “The launch of Toshiba’s new solid state hybrid drives will enable laptop and ultrabook users access to high speed, high capacity storage. By combining fast NAND flash technology with HDD storage space, consumers can now enjoy the best of both worlds,” said Martin Larsson, vice president, Toshiba Electronics Europe. “Toshiba’s years of experience and innovation in the storage industry means it’s in a unique position to capitalize on these benefits. The new hybrid model is one of the top innovative technologies for Toshiba and its transformative nature heralds a new type of storage for the consumer.” For more information please visit our Toshiba storage website at www.storage.toshiba.eu. .
