Key Features
Killer speed - With up to SATA 6 Gb/s interface and 32 MB cache, next generation 10,000 RPM WD VelociRaptor are up to 15% faster than the award-winning previous generation.
Rock-solid reliability - Designed and manufactured to mission- critical enterprise-class standards to provide enterprise reliability in high duty cycle environments. With 1.4 million hours MTBF, these drives have the highest available reliability rating on a high-capacity SATA drive.
Ultra-cool operation - Consumes less idle power and uses similar active power as the previous generation WD VelociRaptor, while offering double the capacity and higher performance.
IcePack™ mounting frame - The 2.5-inch WD VelociRaptor is enclosed in a backplane-ready 3.5-inch enterprise-class mounting frame with a built-in heat sink that keeps this powerful little drive extra cool when installed in high-performance desktop chassis.
Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward (RAFF™) - Optimizes operation and performance when the drives are used in vibration- prone, multi-drive chassis.
NoTouch™ ramp load technology - The recording head never touches the disk media ensuring significantly less wear to the recording head and media as well as better drive protection in transit.
Environmentally conscious - In addition to being ROHS compliant, this generation of WD VelociRaptor is also a halogen free design.
5-year limited warranty
