WD Scorpio delivers best-in-class performance with low power requirements comparable to much slower notebook drives. In addition, you'll get the quietest 2.5-inch drive on the market with real-time data protection technology to help keep your data safe. The Western Digital Scorpio offers a 3 year warranty.
Features:
Fast and efficient Spins at 5400 RPM for fast performance but has power specs similar to slower 4200 RPM drives. Low power consumption yields increased reliability.
Quiet
WD's exclusive WhisperDrive technology with SoftSeek algorithms make this the quietest 2.5-inch hard drive, regardless of spin speed.
Reliable
WD's ShockGuard technology protects the drive mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks. Meets the highest shock tolerance specifications: 250 Gs while in operation, 900 Gs when it's idle. WD's DuraStep Ramp locks the heads in a secure position away from the disk to provide another layer of protection when the drive is not in use. Utilizing the most technologically advanced material available, the drive can perform a minimum of 600,000 load/unload cycles without contamination - up to twice the performance of its competitors.
Rugged
WD Scorpio's rigid stainless steel top cover withstands more than 5 pounds of pressure - nearly 1.5 times the industry average - without pinching vital internal components.
Ideal For
Portable digital devices of all kinds, including notebook computers, portable external storage, digital audio, GPS systems, and tablet PCs.
