Lightning Fast – With state-of-the-art SATA II 3Gb/sec transfer rates and 16 MB of cache, these drives push the boundaries of performance for their class.
Cool Running – Cool drive operating temperatures help increase long-term drive reliability. WD achieves the lowest operating temperature of any hard drive in its class, by lowering power consumption through advanced electronics and firmware.
Ultra Quiet – WD minimizes noise to levels virtually below the threshold of human hearing with its WhisperDrive technology, which features a highly efficient power driver design. And to cut seek noise, Soft Seek technology streamlines read/write seeking algorithms.
SecureConnect – provides a 500 percent stronger cable-to-drive connection than first-generation SATA hard drives and cables. Also ensures backward compatibility with legacy SATA cables and
back planes.
FlexPower – connector technology that accepts power from both industry-standard and new SATA power supplies.
That power savings equates to reducing CO2 emission by
up to 60 kilograms per drive per year - the equivalent of taking your car off
the road for 14 days each year. This new platform makes it possible for our
energy-conscious customers to build systems with higher capacities and the right
balance of system performance, ensured reliability and energy conservation.
1TB Western Digital SATA II GreenPower
Drive – Currently available 1 TB hard
drives have a typical power consumption rating greater than 13.5 watts. Western
Digital has designed the first 3.5-inch hard drives that deliver power savings
as the primary attribute. Green Power drives from Western Digital yield average
drive power savings of 4-5 watts over competitors' drives while maintaining
solid performance.
