Toshiba T3100 is not a true portable, because it needs an external power source in all except the last version. Five versions exist: The T3100/20 is essentially the same as the base T3100 but with a larger hard drive (20 MB instead of 10 MB). The T3100e has a 12 MHz 80286 CPU (switchable to 6 MHz), 1 MB RAM and a 20 MB hard drive. [5]

Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T. or SMART) is a monitoring system included in computer hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs). [3] Its primary function is to detect and report various indicators of drive reliability, or how long a drive can function while anticipating imminent hardware failures.
A hard disk drive (HDD), hard disk, hard drive, or fixed disk [a] is an electro-mechanical data storage device that stores and retrieves digital data using magnetic storage with one or more rigid rapidly rotating platters coated with magnetic material.
Unlike the Convertible, it includes a standard serial port and parallel port, connectors for an external monitor, and a real-time clock. Unusually for an IBM compatible PC, the T1000 contains a 256 KB ROM with a copy of MS-DOS 2.11. This acts as a small, read-only hard drive. Alternative operating systems can still be loaded from the floppy ...
1.8-inch drives with ZIF connectors were used in digital audio players, such as the iPod Classic, and subnotebooks. Later 1.8-inch drives were updated with a micro-SATA connector and up to 320GB of storage (Toshiba MK3233GSG). The 1.8-inch form factor was eventually phased out as SSDs became cheaper and more compact. [38]
In 1950, Tokyo Shibaura Denki was renamed Toshiba. This logo, known as the "Umbrella Mark", was used from 1950 to 1969, and then as a primary logo between 1969 and 1984. It was also used later on for hard drives. [23] Toshiba's secondary logo used from 1969 to 1984, used in tandem with the umbrella logo above [24] Toshiba logo, used since 1984 [24]
The capacity of hard drives has grown exponentially over time. When hard drives became available for personal computers, they offered 5-megabyte capacity. During the mid-1990s the typical hard disk drive for a PC had a capacity in the range of 500 megabyte to 1 gigabyte. [6] As of February 2025 hard disk drives up to 36 TB were available. [7]
