Toshiba's enterprise portfolio includes the MG series for SATA/SAS datacenter HDDs and the N300 line for NAS applications, with capacities from 4TB to 20TB and 5-year warranties.
Toshiba is the third major HDD manufacturer. Their MG series covers enterprise SATA and SAS nearline drives. The N300 targets NAS as a competitor to IronWolf and WD Red Pro. Toshiba drives are often overlooked but offer competitive reliability and pricing, particularly in the 8-18TB NAS segment.

We track 18 active Toshiba products, 8 of which have a buyable offer right now, all of them hard drives - the MG07ACA14TE 14TB SATA Enterprise and the MG09 18TB among them. Capacities run from 1.8TB to 18TB, which is the practical range to plan around rather than whatever the manufacturer's full line-up contains - a capacity nobody stocks is not a capacity you can buy.
On interface, the catalogue is SATA-6G (10) and SAS-12G (5). That matters more than it sounds: a SAS drive needs a host bus adapter, a U.2 drive needs a backplane or an adapter, and neither will work in a machine expecting the other. Check the interface column on every row before you buy on price alone.
The cheapest Toshiba listing we can currently price works out at $25.29 per terabyte, which is well below the $43.75 median across every hard drives brand we track. That comparison is the useful one. A headline price tells you what a drive costs; the rate per terabyte against the category median tells you whether this manufacturer is where your money goes furthest today.
Concretely, that entry point is the MG07ACA14TE 14TB SATA Enterprise at $354.00, while the largest thing they have in stock is the MG09 18TB at 18TB for $1040.00. Those two rows bracket the range: one is the cheapest way in, the other is the most capacity on a single unit, and the right answer is usually neither extreme.
Toshiba appears here in both conditions - 5 new listings and 3 recertified or used - and they are genuinely different purchases rather than the same product at two prices. New carries the manufacturer's own warranty term. Recertified carries a reseller's, which is a different promise from a different company, and the discount is the compensation for that. Our recertified guidance covers what to check on arrival.
The seller matters as much as the condition, and the two are shown separately for a reason. A listing fulfilled by Amazon can still be sold by a third party, and in a market where prices have risen sharply that distinction is worth the thirty seconds it takes to read. Our channel and counterfeit guidance covers what to look for at the point of purchase.
If you have settled on Toshiba, the table above is the whole picture and the cost-per-terabyte column is the ranking that matters. If you have not, the category pages are the better starting point, because they put this brand beside every other one we track at the same capacity rather than in isolation.
On price, the cheapest current listing (MG07ACA14TE 14TB SATA Enterprise) works out at $25.29 per terabyte against a $43.75 median across every brand we track in the same category. That is the comparison we can make from live data. Whether it suits your workload is a question the table cannot answer for you.
15 hard drives. That is what has listings we can verify and price, rather than everything the manufacturer produces.
Both - 5 new and 3 recertified or used in stock right now, labelled per row (the cheapest overall is the MG07ACA14TE 14TB SATA Enterprise). They are different purchases: new carries the manufacturer's warranty, recertified a reseller's, and the price gap is the compensation.
From 1.8TB to 18TB across what we currently track; the largest in stock is the MG09 18TB. Availability at any single size moves week to week, so the table above is the authority rather than the range.
