Q: What is the cache (buffer) size on my Toshiba Drive?
A: Drives that are smaller than 250 GB have 2 MB caches, drives
that are smaller than 400 GB have 8 MB caches and drives that are
400 GB or larger have 16 MB caches.
Q: Can you make the Drive bootable?

as boot volumes.
Q: Why doesn't the Drive need a fan?

Q: Why is the capacity of my Drive as shown in Windows lower
than the Drive's actual stated capacity?
A: The difference is mostly due to the way operating systems
measure disk capacity, as compared to the method used by hard
drive manufacturers. Hard Drive manufacturers have always used the
decimal (base 10) method, where 1GB = 1,000 MB = 1,000,000 KB =
1,000,000,000 bytes. Operating systems use the binary (base 2)
method, where 1GB = 1,024 MB = 1,048,576 KB = 1,073,741,824 bytes.
For this reason, a hard drive with a capacity of 120 GB (decimal) will
