MQ01ABU-BW Series
Toshiba's MQ01ABU-BW series of self-encrypting, FIPS 140-2 compliant 5,400 rpm HDDs (SED) deliver up to 500 GB of data storage capacity in a ultra-compact 2.5-inch 7mm height form factor. The MQ01ABU-BW leverages Toshiba's Wipe security feature which automatically erases data when the HDD is accessed by an unregistered system. Unlike software-based encryption which relies on the system CPU for encryption processing, the MQ01ABU-BW leverages its onboard crypto-processor to encrypt at full interface speed without impacting system level performance. With FIPS 140-2 level 2 compliance, Toshiba's MQ01ABU-BW offering provides tamper-evident labeling to deliver high level of security.

FAQs 
Where to Buy- Instructions for Dispose
Please dispose in accordance with local rules. - Instructions for erase of the data on the HDDs in case of dispose or transfer
HDDs incorporated in personal computer or several home appliance may record personal data and/or other important data as signal. In order to avoid disclosing such data, it is important to erase it when you dispose or transfer the HDDs. - Product image may represent a design model.
- Definition of capacity: One terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes, but storage capacity actually available may vary depending on operating environment and formatting. Available storage capacity (including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size, formatting, settings, software and operating system and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary.
- A mebibyte (MiB) means 1 048 576 bytes.
- MTTF / MTBF (Mean Time to Failure / Mean Time Between Failures) is not a guarantee or estimate of product life; it is a statistical value related to mean failure rates for a large number of products which may not accurately reflect actual operation. Actual operating life of the product may be different from the MTTF/MTBF.
- Read and write speed may vary depending on the host device, read and write conditions, and file size.
- "3.5-inch" means the form factor of HDDs. It does not indicate drive's physical size.
- Workload is a measure of the data throughput of the year, and it is defined as the amount of data written, read or verified by commands from the host system.
