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.
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.
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.
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.
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 device in demanding situations.
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 require solutions for handling high volumes of data through multi-RAID NAS environments.

very fast for transferring large volumes such as 4k videos;
ideal for direct encoding in H264 and H265 as well as interpolations and upscaling.
However, like all physical disks, once you reach half its capacity, performance starts to slow down but remains more than respectable.
In short, an excellent product, I recommend it!
Received yesterday, connected to a USB dock to act as a backup drive for my NAS, I'm amazed by its speed compared to the accesses to the NAS itself (Seagate and WD drives at 7200rpm too). And frankly, the silence. Apart from a few muffled "clicks", it doesn't flinch, unlike the NAS, which resonates right next to it. Maybe it's a fluke, but I'll give it another go when I renew my next backup drive.
With hard disks it's always a game of chance, you never know when they will fail.
After a month of use, no problems at all.
A fast and easy to install hard drive with a large capacity, ideal for video storage.
