Notes:
[1] Compared with the HK3R2 series and the HK3E series.
[2] DWPD: Drive Write Per Day. One full drive write per day means the drive can be written and re-written to full capacity once a day every day for five years, the stated product warranty period. Actual results may vary due to system configuration, usage and other factors.
[3] Definition of capacity: Toshiba defines a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes and a gigabyte (GB) as 1,000,000,000 bytes. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1GB = 230 = 1,073,741,824 bytes and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity (including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size, formatting, settings, software and operating system, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
[4] Toshiba defines a kibibyte (KiB) as 1,024 bytes (210) and a mebibyte (MiB) as 1,048,576 bytes (220).
Read and write speed may vary depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size.
