Features
1. Energy Efficiency:
- WD Green Series: This hard drive is optimized for energy efficiency to minimize power consumption. This is especially useful for use in systems that run 24/7 or for users who want to reduce their energy consumption.
2. Performance:
- 5400 RPM: The low rotation speed reduces power consumption and noise compared to 7200 RPM hard drives. This makes the hard drive ideal for applications where performance is not the highest priority, but energy efficiency and quiet operation are important.
- 64 MB Cache: The large cache memory improves overall performance by storing frequently accessed data and making it available quickly, reducing access times.
3. Interface:
- SATA III (6 Gb/s): Offers high transfer rates compared to older SATA-I or SATA-II interfaces. This speed improves data transfer and is backwards compatible with older SATA versions.
4. Noise Level:
- Quiet Operation: Designed for very quiet operation, ideal for noise-sensitive environments such as offices or bedrooms. The lower rotation speed helps minimize operating noise.
5. Reliability:
- Intelligent Error Correction: Uses error detection and correction technologies to ensure data integrity and extend the life of the hard drive.
6. Thermal Management:
- Thermal Monitoring: The hard drive has built-in technologies to monitor and control operating temperature to prevent overheating.
Application Range
1. Desktop PCs:
- Primary or Secondary Drive: Can be used in desktop PCs as both a primary hard drive for the operating system and applications, and a secondary drive for additional storage needs.
2. External Storage Solutions:
- External Enclosure: Ideal for use in external hard drive enclosures to provide additional and portable storage space. The 2TB capacity is useful for storing large amounts of data and backup purposes.
3. Backup Solutions:
- Data Backup: Due to the large capacity, the hard drive is well suited for backup and archiving purposes. The energy efficiency helps to minimize power consumption during long backup processes.
4. Home and office applications:
- Everyday use: Ideal for everyday applications such as storing documents, music, videos and other personal data. The hard drive is large enough for most home users and office applications.
5. Media servers:
- Media file storage: Useful for media servers that need to store large amounts of videos, music and other media content. The large capacity and quiet operation make it a good choice for this purpose.
Physical specifications
1. Dimensions:
- Form Factor: 3.5 inches (101.6 mm x 147 mm x 26.1 mm), suitable for desktop cases and external enclosures.
2. Weight:
- Typically around 600-700 g, making them suitable for stationary use in desktop PCs.
3. Case Material:
- Robust metal or plastic that provides protection and helps dissipate heat.
Additional Details
- Compatibility:
- SATA III: The hard drive is backwards compatible with older SATA I and SATA II interfaces and can be operated in modern SATA III ports. However, performance will be limited to the respective interface speed.
- Temperature range:
- Operating temperature: Typically from 0°C to 60°C
- Storage temperature: From -40°C to 70°C
- Warranty:
- Typically 2 years limited warranty, dependent on manufacturer and region conditions.
