In 1984, Toshiba invented a new type of semiconductor memory called flash memory. In 1987,
Toshiba developed NAND flash memory, which became an internationally standardized
memory device. After that, Toshiba has been striving to be a world leader in NAND flash
technology and production.
The Good Factory Awards were founded in 2011 by the Japan Management Association
(JMA) to commend excellent Japanese factories in Asia for achieving excellent results in
terms of kaizen (continuous improvement) and kakushin (innovation). Toshiba Information
Equipment (Philippines), Inc., which manufactures hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid state
drives (SSDs), won the Factory Management Award in October 2011 for "a generally high
level of factory operation and good overall balance."
This commendation program publicly recognizes enterprises, factories and offices in Japan's
industrial, business and transportation sectors for their efforts in energy conservation as well
as business organizations that have developed products with excellent energy efficiency. Its
objectives are to raise energy conservation awareness, promote energy conservation
products, cultivate industrial fields involved in energy conservation and help create a society
where energy conservation is the norm. In 2011, Toshiba's enterprise SSDs, MK4001GRZB,
MK2001GRZB and MK1001GRZB, were awarded the Director-General's Prize of the
Agency for Natural Resources and Energy in the Product Category & Business Model
Category.
The built-in type solid state drive (SSD) and hard disk drive (HDD) products in this catalog
are classified as Halogen-Free. For the avoidance of doubt, Halogen-Free SSD or HDD
products may not be entirely free of bromine and chlorine, and may contain any othe
element of the halogen family. For the definitions of Halogen-Free of Toshiba Semiconductor
Storage Products Company, and details in each product series, please contact your
TOSHIBA sales representative in the last page of this catalog.
The directive adopted by the European Union (EU) that restricts the use of six hazardous
materials, lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and
polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE), in the manufacture of computers, telecommunication
equipment, home appliances, etc. The RoHS directive was recast in 2011 and has been enforced in
January 2013. All the SSDs and HDDs listed in this catalog are compatible with the RoHS directive.

Client SSDs and HDDs Overview and Structure
PRODUCT CATALOG
SSD Solid State Drive
Client SSD
Connector (Interface)
Has an HDD-compatible SATA
interface and an mSATA interface
suitable for small-form-factor
appliances.
Controller
The heart of an SSD that delivers
fast read/write performance,
prolonged write/erase cycle life
and enhanced reliability.
NAND Flash Memory
Data is stored in a NAND flash
memory array, which features
Toshiba's MLC NAND technology
to achieve low costs and
high storage capacities.
SSD is a storage product*1 that uses semiconductor memory
(NAND flash memory)*
no mechanical moving parts, they are superior to HDDs in terms
of:
1) read performance, 2) resistance to shock and vibration and 3)
silent operation. Additionally, SSDs feature low power consumption
in standby mode.
*1 Toshiba collectively refers to products that can store data such as SSDs
and HDDs as "storage products".
*2 NAND flash memory is a nonvolatile semiconductor memory.

HDD Hard Disk Drive
Client HDD
Connector (Interface)
Has the most commonly used
SATA port for system interfacing.
Spindle Motor
A key part for rotating a medium at
high rpm. The platters are spun at
speeds varying from 5,400 rpm in
HDDs for PC applications to
15,000 rpm in enterprise HDDs.
Medium
A storage medium that holds data.
2.5-inch HDDs can hold up to
500 GB of data per platter.
Magnetic Head
Data is read from and written to
a medium via the magnetic head.
An HDD is a storage product that magnetically stores data in a
disk recording medium. Data is written to and read from a platter,
which rotates at high speeds, via a magnetic head that operates
very close to the disk surface. Compared to SSDs, increasing
storage capacities is easier for HDDs. Additionally, HDDs provide
higher cost performance (lower price per gigabyte) than SSDs.
