Product overview
Launched on April 20, 2018, the Toshiba X300 10TB is part of Toshiba’s X300 Performance desktop HDD family. This exact SKU (HDWR11AXZSTA) is a 3.5-inch SATA 6 Gb/s drive using conventional magnetic recording (CMR), a 7200 RPM spindle, and a 256 MB cache. On our storage tiering it’s budget: a mechanical HDD built to deliver lots of capacity cost‑effectively—why it exists over faster, pricier SSDs. It’s genuinely good for bulk media, backups, and a large game library where space matters more than load times; pair it with an SSD for the OS and frequently used apps. Not discontinued as of 2026. Unique note: CMR design (not SMR) for consistent write behavior.
