Emulates the sector size of a 512 byte per sector drive. Write cache which protect the data integrity in case of power failure.

Review: Workhorse ! - I had heard that Toshiba makes really excellent hard drives, internal or external, so I took a chance and purchased this one. I’ve only had it for about a week, and so far I have no regrets. Everything is working fine. I needed this as a backup for another drive that no longer boots up. So with the use of Disk Drill software I was able to transfer files from the broken drive that didn’t work to this new Toshiba. So far so good. Seems to be very reliable. I had to format it for Mac and it was no problem at all. Needed this huge terabyte drive because I do a lot of editing - perfect for what I need. A bit pricey but considering the storage capacity, it’s top notch. I also bought the Orico enclosure to keep it safe and dust free. Hardly any noise.
Review: Interesting differences in SMART - I'm new to Toshiba drives (have lots of Seagate and WD), but these drives lack a SMART conveyance test, which is the first thing I run when I get new drives to check for shipping damage. Instead, I ran the long test on them. Here's another difference. On Seagate/WD, while a long test is running, there's an entry in the test results stating that a test is ongoing, and what % is left. And if a drive loses power, when it gets power again, it'll resume the test where it left off. On these drives, there's no entry in the test results until the test completes, and if the drive loses power, it'll forget it was testing. Other than those quirks, SMART output shows that these drives are brand new with 0 hours and the long tests completed on them without issue. FYI, the polling time recommended for the long test results was 15xx minutes (25-26 hours), but the tests actually finished in about 22 hours.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting differences in SMART
*by K***. on October 19, 2022*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought 3, they work great! Be sure to initialize as GPT not MBR.
*by S***S on November 29, 2021*

NOTE: I've seen many people complain about drives because they're "fake" and only have 2048 GB. The drive is not fake. 2048GB is a limitation of the old MBR partition format, and if you initialize/format the drive with MBR you will see a 2TB partition! All you need to do to fix this is right click on the drive number in Windows Disk Management (get there from the start menu via Computer Management or "Create and format hard disk partitions"), click "Convert to GTP", and reformat the drive. I needed to replace several 6-year-old 6TB drives, and these were the natural choice. FC-MAMR is, of course, new tech, but I am expecting these to be reliable: a media that requires a stronger magnetic recording field means more energy is required to flip individual magnetic bits, so they should be less likely to flip on their own. Otherwise, the drives run exactly like you'd expect any other drive to run: plug it in and go. They aren't any noisier than any of my other drives and I have been transferring data to them non-stop since installation and haven't encountered any problems or unexpected behavior. Great job, Toshiba!
