Toshiba Electronics Europe has just
announced the amalgamation of the higher platter density with the higher number of platters, in an enterprise level 5TB 3.5" 7200 RPM drive. It will be equipped with either 6Gb/s SAS (MG04SCA) or 6Gb/s SATA (MG04ACA) interfaces, and can also be supplied with Toshiba's Sanitize Instant Erase (SIE) functionality. No information was given about release date and pricing given the enterprise focus that Toshiba Electronics Europe is giving this product, I would imagine the focus would turn to local Toshiba representatives for individual pricing.
