When it comes to performance, Toshiba declares up to 230 MB/s sustained host to media transfer speed as well as 4.17 ms average latency. As for power consumption, the MG05ACA-series hard drives are rated to consume up to 11.4 W during random reads and 6.2 W in active idle mode.</p> <p>The Toshiba MG05-series HDDs are designed for nearline applications (i.e. somewhere between rapid access and cold storage) that operate for 24/7. The model is rated for 550 TB/year annual workload (read and write) as well as for 2 million hours MTBF.</p> <p>These are proper enterprise grade drives for server use. Durable and fast, perfect for home NAS applications.</p> <p>I believe these are the drives sold in Dell Poweredge servers as Dell part no. 4WXV5 - <a href="https://www.etb-tech.com/dell-8tb-sata-7-2k-3-5-6g-512e-hard-drive-4wxv5.html#.Wzx-l9IzaUk" class="external" rel="noopener nofollow">https://www.etb-tech.com/dell-8tb-sata-7-2k-3-5-6g-512e-hard…</a></p> <p>For practical comparison the Seagate Ironwolf (NAS) 8TB drives are rated to 180 TB/year workload vs 550 TB/year for these Toshiba drives. This makes them amazing value when compared with the Ironwolf drives which are about $325 on ebay before discount codes.</p> <p>The caveat here is these Toshiba drives only come with a 2 year warranty as they are OEM bulk drives.</p> <p>Free shipping for eBay plus members. I bought 5 drives from this seller and they were sent via DHL express.</p> <p><a href="/node/388355" class="internal inline">Original 10% off Sitewide on eBay Deal Post</a></p> ]]></description> <comments>https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/388941#comment</comments> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/cat/computing">Computing</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/8tb">8TB</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/computer-component">Computer Component</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/hard-drive">Hard Drive</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/toshiba-mg05aca800e">Toshiba MG05ACA800E</category> <ozb:meta comment-count="65" link="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/goto/388941" click-count="1959" expiry="2018-07-09T00:00:00+10:00" votes-pos="63" votes-neg="0" url="https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/232833927478" image="https://files.ozbargain.com.au/n/41/388941l.jpg?h=7d7ede3c" /> <ozb:title-msg type="expired">expired</ozb:title-msg> <media:thumbnail url="https://files.ozbargain.com.au/n/41/388941l.jpg?h=7d7ede3c" /> <pubDate>Wed, 04 Jul 2018 18:12:15 +1000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Lichen6420</dc:creator> <guid isPermaLink="false">388941 at https://www.ozbargain.com.au</guid> </item> <item> <title>Toshiba 8TB 7.2k 6G 3.5" 512E 128MB Cache SATA Enterprise Hard Drive MG05ACA800E - $337.50 + Shipping @ SystemaxIT</title> <link>https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/310209</link> <description><![CDATA[<div style="float:right;margin:0 0 1ex 1ex"><a href="/node/310209" rel="noopener nofollow" title="Link: https://www.systemaxit.com/sata-enterprise/261-toshiba-8tb-72k-6g-35-512e-128mb-cache-sata-enterprise-hard-drive-mg05aca800e.html"><img src="https://files.ozbargain.com.au/n/09/310209.jpg?h=bbac93d8" alt="Toshiba 8TB 7.2k 6G 3.5" 512E 128MB Cache SATA Enterprise Hard Drive MG05ACA800E - $337.50 + Shipping @ SystemaxIT"/></a></div><p>Toshiba 8TB 7.2k 6G 3.5" 512E 128MB Cache SATA Enterprise Hard Drive MG05ACA800E</p> <p>Receive a 10% discount on the listed price, Please use coupon code: OZBARGIN.</p> <p>Buyers are welcome to pick up from store and save on shipping.</p> <p>Coupon code only available to the first 100 customers.</p> ]]></description> <comments>https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/310209#comment</comments> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/cat/computing">Computing</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/8tb">8TB</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/computer-component">Computer Component</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/hard-drive">Hard Drive</category> <category domain="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/tag/toshiba-mg05aca800e">Toshiba MG05ACA800E</category> <ozb:meta comment-count="27" link="https://www.ozbargain.com.au/goto/310209" click-count="447" expiry="2017-07-17T00:00:00+10:00" votes-pos="10" votes-neg="0" url="https://www.systemaxit.com/sata-enterprise/261-toshiba-8tb-72k-6g-35-512e-128mb-cache-sata-enterprise-hard-drive-mg05aca800e.html" image="https://files.ozbargain.com.au/n/09/310209l.jpg?h=bbac93d8" /> <ozb:title-msg type="expired">expired</ozb:title-msg> <media:thumbnail url="https://files.ozbargain.com.au/n/09/310209l.jpg?h=bbac93d8" /> <pubDate>Thu, 01 Jun 2017 10:46:59 +1000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Systemax</dc:creator> <guid isPermaLink="false">310209 at https://www.ozbargain.com.au</guid> </item> </channel> </rss>
