Designed with gaming and professional use scenarios in mind, the Toshiba X300 3.5-inch mechanical hard drive features 512 MB cache memory and spins at up to 7200 RPM. With a list price of US$584.99, the model HDWR31GXZSTA with 16 TB of storage is now down by 50% on Amazon, so it can be snagged for US$294.99.

Available on Amazon since mid-Julu 2021, the 16 TB Toshiba X300 is a CMR SATA hard drive with a rotational speed of 7200 RPM, 512 MB cache memory, and designed having performance desktop applications in mind, including gaming. The HDWR31GXZSTA has a generous 50% discount that brings it down to US$294.99 from a list price of US$584.99.

In addition to the specs and features mentioned above, it should also be highlighted that the Toshiba X300 features an internal shock sensor and ramp-loading to increase the reliability of the drive and the safety of all data on it even in conditions that are less than ideal (vibrations, bumps). The X300 drives also use Toshiba's proprietary cache technology, which optimizes allocation during read/write operations to ensure best performance at all times.

The Toshiba X300 is also available in 4 TB, 6 TB, 8 TB, 10 TB, 12 TB, and 14 TB variants (those up to 10 TB only feature 256 MB cache). The 4 to 10 TB sizes are currently discounted on Amazon as well, the 12 TB model has no discount (and a US$209.99 list price), while the 14 TB model (HDWR31EXZSTA) is also available for roughly 50% off, since it goes for US$249.99 instead of US$504.99.
