About this product
The TOSHIBA MQ04ABB400 is a 2.5-inch internal hard drive boasting a substantial 4TB storage capacity. Operating at 5400 RPM with a 16MB cache, it connects via a modern SATA 6.0Gb/s (SATA III) interface. Despite its large capacity and laptop form factor, it has a 15mm z-height, which should be considered for compatibility. It's designed for PC compatibility and features Hot Swap capability.
Our take
This Toshiba 4TB drive offers an impressive amount of storage in a compact 2.5-inch form factor, making it ideal for laptops or small form factor PCs where space is limited but capacity is crucial. The SATA III interface is excellent for modern systems, though the 5400 RPM speed means it prioritizes storage density and power efficiency over raw speed. The 15mm height is a key spec to note; it might not fit in all standard 2.5-inch bays, particularly thinner laptops. For $159.95, it's a solid choice if you need vast portable storage and your system can accommodate the physical size.
