safe and reliable personal data storage

External drives combine elegant low-profile design with practical features and extra capacity

Toshiba today announces a new addition to its popular family of CANVIO external hard drives (HDDs), a 4TB^[1] option in its PREMIUM, ADVANCE, BASICS and READY series.

  The 4TB option gives up to 33 percent compared with 3TB extra storage for individuals and small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) that want to store large files and back up their data.

CANVIO HDDs combine a sleek, slim and stylish design with practical features such as a ramp-load design to prevent internal wear, plug-and-play functionality, and a range of more flexible capacity options of 500GB^[4], 1TB, 2TB, 3TB, and now 4TB.

“The amount of data a person or company needs to store and back up is increasing exponentially. Toshiba constantly strives to give our customers cutting edge technologies with ever greater storage in a portable, lightweight and attractive design”, says Takayoshi Tokushima, Senior Director, Marketing Dept, Toshiba Electornic Components Taiwan Corporation.
