Toshiba’s MKxx59GSXP series of 5,400 RPM hard disk drives

is a long data sector counterpart to the MKxx76GSX line-up.

Both product series build upon the maturity of the Toshiba

320GB1 per-platter architecture to oer the same big storage

capacities with a technology boost to enhance quality and

span 160 to 640GB. e MKxx59GSXP series uses Advanced

Format (AF) technology where data is stored on the media in

4,096 bytes per sector increments. Compatibility with legacy,

512 bytes per sector applications is maintained through AF

emulation techniques, called 512e2.

e large storage capacities, ruggedness and cool operation

of the MKxx59GSXP models are well-suited for mobile and compact, stationary applications. eir massive storage capacity and energy eciency also make the MKxx59GSXP

line an attractive, space-saving alternative to desktop hard

drives. Power consumption can be reduced by more than 80%

over like-capacity 3.5-inch hard disk drives.

While reducing or eliminating the use of certain toxic,

hazardous or controversial chemicals and materials3 in the

drive, the MKxx59GSXP series is ideal for Windows® 74 and

Mac®5 OS-based notebook, all-in-one and EnergyStar® desktop

PCs, external storage devices and other computing.

One Terabyte (1TB) = 1,000 Gigabytes (GB). One Gigabyte (1GB) means 10 bytes using powers of 10. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the denition of 1GB = 230 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if the computer includes one or more pre-installed operating systems, pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.

Compatibility with legacy, 512 bytes per sector applications is maintained through AF emulation techniques, called 512e.
