TOSHIBA HDWD130 is a hard drive model created by Toshiba. It is a 3.5" 3 TB 7,200 RPM CMR hard drive. It is a rebadged TOSHIBA DT01ACA300, which is in turn, a rebadged Hitachi drive which was never released by the original company.

This drive no longer has direct competitors, but it formerly competed with the ST3000DM001-1CH166/-1ER166/-9YN166 and ST3000DM008-2DM166.

History

The HDWD130 was part of the initial four models introduced to the P300 family in 2015. At the time of its release, it was the highest capacity model, representing the full three-platter design of the Hitachi HDA it was based on. Even though the HDWD260 released in 2020 took its crown as the highest capacity model overall, the HDWD130 remains the highest capacity CMR 7,200 RPM drive in the P300 family.

The HDWD130, along with the OEM relabel, DT01ACA300, is currently the only CMR 3 TB 7,200 RPM hard drive model in production, after the ST3000DM008-2DM166 was discontinued.

Trivia

  • The HDWD130, like most Hitachi desktop drive firmware (dating back all the way to the IBM Deathstar family), has a bugged Power-off Retract Count counter; it always matches Load/Unload Cycle Count, even if the hard drive has always been powered down normally. It can sometimes exceed Power Cycle Count and Start-Stop Count, which is also illogical, since there can never be more power-off retracts than there are power cycles. The SMR 3-platter variant based on the same HDA, TOSHIBA HDWD260, does not exhibit this issue due to it running native Toshiba firmware; the Power-off Retract Count correctly increments independently from Load/Unload Cycle Count.
