Overview

N300: a high reliability hard drive


Designed for NAS, the Toshiba N300 hard drive delivers unmatched reliability! In the demanding world of mass storage, the N300 delivers optimal performance and meets the endurance, performance and scalability needs of a high capacity 24/7 storage system for personal, home office or small business use.


Designed for NAS


Through discussions with NAS manufacturers, Toshiba recognised the need for high reliability drives that address today's data storage and retrieval requirements, including streaming, backup and archiving. The drive, which can support multiple multi-RAID systems with up to 8 hard drives, enables reliable storage and use of large volumes of data by multiple clients 24/7.


Integrated VR sensors


Conventional hard drives without RV sensors can degrade the performance of a multi-bay NAS system by generating harmful vibration. N300 drives ensure high reliability by reducing vibration through monitoring and sensor technology. Numerous sensors detect even the slightest shock, and the built-in RV sensors compensate for rotational vibration, thus limiting the risk of harmful vibration in the multi-bay NAS system configuration.


Reliable continuous operation


NAS systems in small business or creative environments must be accessible by multiple users from different locations simultaneously. Therefore, today's NAS drives guarantee high data transfer rates and simultaneous upload and download 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. By offering high reliability and scalability, the N300 guarantees a workload factor of up to 180 TB/year, which is up to 3 times more than conventional desktop hard drives.


High durability and heat protection


The use of highly robust components is one of the reasons why the N300 series provides a higher durability than conventional hard drives. In addition, theautomatic adjustment of the seekspeed to reduce heat during any operation involving high temperatures further enhances the robustness of the unit in demanding situations.


High speed for a multi-drive environment

You can enjoy high performance and accelerated read speed when accessing data communicated by many users, thanks to a 128 MB data buffer. This makes the drive suitable for small businesses and content management professionals who are looking for solutions for handling high volumes of data through multi-RAID NAS environments.

    Hot and Noisy

    Very noisy hard drive with an infernal "cloc' cloc". I have 4 in a NAS for my media player. I don't need to describe it to you.
    I've got 4 of them in a NAS for my media player and I don't need to describe it to you, but they heat up terribly so much that it's impossible to touch them. Hopefully these two drawbacks will not affect their life span.
    It is certain that I will not buy any more.
    I had made this choice for the 7200 RPM and that they were dedicated to NAS. So I went back to the "Seagate BarraCuda 4Tb (ST4000DM004)" which is dead silent and doesn't get hot.
    I'm not discouraging anyone, just informing them what to expect when choosing these drives.

    Very good

    Good morning, efficient service, good condition
    I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product.
    I was a bit worried about the noisy disk but nothing to complain about, no more noise than another disk, good reactive speed, replacing a seagate that doesn't work anymore.
    I will take the same one next time I change.
