Toshiba DT01ACA
Toshiba DT01ACA is a hard drive family created by Toshiba. This family consists of rebranded Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000.D and other unreleased Hitachi models, which were acquired from the acquisition of 3.5" drive assets from the Western Digital and Hitachi acquisition, during which WD was forced to divest assets to Toshiba.[1] All models in this family spin at 7,200 RPM.[2] This family was accompanied by the now-discontinued Toshiba DT01ABA family, which carried 5,000-class RPM drives and were based on Hitachi Deskstar 5K1000.Bs. Most of the higher capacity DT01ACA models received equivalent Toshiba P300 rebrands with new labelling.
This family also contains the subfamily Toshiba DT01ACA-V, with a single model. This model is based off an unreleased Hitachi Cinemastar 7,200 RPM model.

Trivia
- Although this family was not Toshiba's first 3.5" drive family (the enterprise-targeted MKxx01TRKB and MKxx02TSKB were), it does bear the honour of being the first consumer-targeted drive family that Toshiba produced.
