Identity & capacity
Exact drive and storage layout
| Exact model | HAT3310-16T[1] |
|---|---|
| Capacity | 16 TB[1] Decimal raw capacity; formatting and redundancy reduce usable space. |
| Form factor | 3.5-inch[1] |
| Sector format | 512e[1] |
| Recording technology | CMR[1] Conventional magnetic recording; not SMR. |
| Drive design | Helium-sealed[1] |
Interface & performance
NAS use & service
Workload, MTBF, 3-year warranty, DSM firmware path, and sampled HCL pairing notes.
| Workload rating | 180 TB/year[1] Data read, written or verified by host commands; not a capacity or lifetime guarantee. |
|---|---|
| MTBF | 1,200,000 hours[1] A population statistical rating, not the expected life of an individual drive. |
| Limited warranty | 3 years[1] Starts on the purchase date on the receipt; confirm region and serial eligibility. |
| Duty design | 24/7 NAS operation[1] |
| Firmware updates | Through Synology DSM[1] On a supported Synology system when an update is available. |
| NAS compatibility | Recommended on sampled Plus NAS internal-tray lists; still check your exact model[2][9] 2026-09-11 HCL samples listing HAT3310-16T as Published/recommended: DS923+, DS224+, DS1522+, DS1825+. Synology still warns listings can change with firmware or hardware. Do not confuse with HCL row HAT3320-16T. |
| HCL DSM note (sampled) | DSM 7.2-64570 or later before installing[9] Shown on HCL notes for DS923+/DS224+/DS1522+/DS1825+. A second note mentions NVR1218 DSM 6.2.4; confirm on your model's HCL note. |
| HCL firmware package | MG09_MN09_SATA_1402.ftd (listed firmware 1402)[9] Package name is an official HCL field, not a retail Toshiba MPN. Do not treat N300/MG09 benchmark numbers as this SKU. |
| Warranty region / thermal cutoff | 3-year limited warranty from receipt; support follows purchase country[1][10] The warranty clause ends drive coverage when recorded temperature equals or exceeds the specified operating limit. Not a data-recovery plan. |
Power & acoustics
Power conditions and sound ratings
| Supply voltage | 12 V ±10%; 5 V +10% / −7%[1] |
|---|---|
| Active idle power | 4.14 W[2] Manufacturer typical; platform and configuration affect consumption. |
| Random read / write power | 7.48 W[2] Manufacturer typical, 4KB Q1. Not startup power or a whole-NAS measurement. |
| Idle / seek acoustics | 20 / 32 dB[1] Manufacturer typical values; the datasheet does not specify distance or weighting. Do not treat these as measured room noise. |
Environment & handling
Operating limits
| Operating temperature | 5°C to 60°C[1] |
|---|---|
| Nonoperating temperature | −40°C to 70°C[1] |
| Operating shock | 686 m/s²[1] 2 ms duration. |
| Nonoperating shock | 2450 m/s²[1] 2 ms duration. |
| Operating vibration | 5–300 Hz: 7.35 m/s²; 300–500 Hz: 2.45 m/s²[1] |
| Nonoperating vibration | 5–500 Hz: 29.4 m/s²[1] |
| Operating altitude | −304.8 to 3048 m[1] |
| Nonoperating altitude | −304.8 to 12,192 m[1] |
| Operating relative humidity | 5–90%, noncondensing[1] |
| Nonoperating relative humidity | 5–95%, noncondensing[1] |
Dimensions & installation
Fit and handling
| Dimensions | 26.1 × 101.85 × 147 mm[1] Height × width × depth. |
|---|---|
| Weight | 720 g[1] |

| Handling | Protect against electrostatic discharge[1] Ground yourself and avoid touching the connectors or circuit board. |
Exact product identity & open questions
- Exact drive
- HAT3310-16T, 16TB, 3.5-inch SATA[1]
- Purchase configuration
- One new internal HDD; no NAS enclosure included[3]
- Exact-model original testing: No original HAT3310-16T lab benchmark with a documented method was adopted. HAT3310-12T articles remain related only.
- Calibrated acoustics: No instrumented enclosure dBA for HAT3310-16T. Kakaku idle/write comments are one RAID 5 DS923+ case.
- Long-term reliability: No population failure study. Six-month four-drive anecdote is not an AFR.
- Exact-model video: No HAT3310-16T parent transcript. ThinkComputers/Vietcorp/TTS URLs remain pending. HAT3320-20T unbox is a different SKU.
- Some US PDPs blocked or unqualified this round: B&H, Amazon, Adorama, Best Buy and Walmart were blocked. Target identity-only snapshot retired from offers. Newegg primary pane and CDW remain dated observations.
