Trivia

  • The MG08-D 4 TB models are currently the only drive models in the 4 TB range to go beyond 1.33 TB density, at 1.6.
  • The introduction of this family marks the first time Toshiba has reused a generation code originally for helium (08) for an air-filled family. This air-filled family is disambiguated by changing the RPM letter from C to D.
