  • What's important here is not the packaging the design or the quality, this drive really is all about one thing and that's performance and capacity. As there's very little else to compare it against it's difficult to place. It's not even a regular size as...

  • Abstract:  You will probably have gathered from my review of the 3TB DT01ACA300 that I consider Toshiba to be a laptop drive company. While it has successfully branched out into desktop drives, it still has a good deal of expertise on the laptop side of things. It s...

  • Abstract:  Most of our avid readers of course have at least one SSD in their desktop and laptop, but for large volume storage you're still relegated to conventional hard disks. It's almost become a negative connotation - 'conventional' - and it really doesn't do t...

  • Abstract:  Over the past few years, 2.5" hard disk capacities have grown by leaps and bounds. And although they're still typically slower than 3.5" drives, performance in the 2.5" form factor continues to increase due to higher data density. Today, even 2.5" drives positioned as quiet energy-savers manage sequential transfer rates over 85 MB/s, while more performance-oriented disks sport transfer rates just shy of 100 MB/s.....

  • Performance  Toshiba MQ01ABD100 with 10 Terabyte capacity showed performance figures which were above the average of our test field Looking at the sequential numbers we see that they quite a lot higher then the competition On the other hand the random rea...

  • The Toshiba MQ01ABD100 was found to not only have superior read/write performance to its 12.5mm Toshiba forebear, but also trumped the previous-fastest Western Digital 9.5mm 1TB notebook disk. If you’re looking for huge storage in a 2.5in drive, the To...

  • Gute Datenraten, Leise, Preis pro GByte
  • Hybrid-Technik, Mäßige Zugriffszeiten
  • Die Toshiba MQ Hybrid 1TB (MQ01ABD100H) ist die beste 2,5-Zoll-SATA-Platte im Test. Der integrierte SSD-Cache sorgt besonders bei kleineren Dateien für schnelle Transferraten. Zudem arbeitet die 1-TByte-Festplatte angenehm leise. Für 8,0 Cent pro GByte i...
