Toshiba announces that it led all HDD companies in year-on-year Nearline HDD average capacity growth in 2020.

Toshiba has done an admirable job of leveraging its industry-first 9-disk helium design to introduce competitive Nearline HDD products in a timely fashion.

"This has been the cornerstone in the company's ability to launch higher capacity Nearline HDD programs," stated John Chen, Vice President at TRENDFOCUS. "Toshiba's 9-disk helium-sealed HDD platform has enabled the company to achieve the highest five-year Compound Annual Growth Rates for Nearline HDD Units, Exabytes, and Average Capacity shipped through 2020.".

The meteoric climb in capacity shipped is a testament to the HDD industry's ability to deliver the most cost-effective and performance delivering storage medium in the market.

"Our rapid increase in capacity shipped per unit, as well as increasing total Exabyte shipments almost ninefold in just five years, is a testament to the hard work and effort by our HDD team here and abroad to grow our Cloud Datacenter scale while continuing to broaden in the Enterprise, and is a reflection of our key customer partners' trust in our products and support," said Kyle Yamamoto, Vice President, HDD Marketing and Business Operations at TAEC. "I am excited about our future, as we are still in the early stages of growth in the Nearline market, and continue to innovate high capacity HDD products designed to meet and enable the rapid storage growth in Cloud Datacenter and Enterprise applications."

Toshiba solves customer challenges with innovative HDD models focusing on four primary market segments.
