The editors liked
Fits a standard 9.5mm height bay unlike many 1TB 2.5” hard disks that require a 12.5mm bay height
Fast sequential read & write performance
Maintains over 100MB/s over the first 400GB
Excellent multitasking performance
Especially with simultaneous re
Build Quality
Ideal For OS Use (SSD-Like Performance For Cached Files)
Very Low Temperatures
Low Power
The Toshiba SSHD significantly reduces the boot time of its host computer and enables the system to launch applications much faster
When compared with a regular hard drive. The drive is more affordable than other SSHDs on the market.
The editors didn't like
Very slow write performance of small files
Especially with files smaller than 1MB
Slow with software installations and updates when used as an OS drive.
Mid-End Overall Performance (Un-Cached)
With only 8GB NAND flash memory and the spinning speed of just 5
400rpm
The drive isn't ideal for transferring a large amount of data.

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: 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...
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...
