Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Carrying on the heritage of WD Caviar SE hard drives as industry-leading performers, Western Digital offers WD Caviar SE Serial ATA (SATA) hard drives which feature capacities as large as 250 GB and an 8 MB buffer, to fill acute demand in market segments such as high-end PC, workstation, and entry-level servers. Designers of enterprise storage systems and servers are increasingly using desktop-class, large-capacity SATA hard drives because of the advantages provided by the SATA interface. Benefits include a data transfer rate of 150 Mpbs and improved cabling that enables greater system design flexibility.

Features

• 8 MB cache -- fast data transfer from a cache four times larger than the industry-standard 2 MB size.
• 7200 RPM -- high performance rotational speed for high-capacity hard drives.
• Data Lifeguard Tools -- software utility that works in conjunction with the embedded Data Lifeguard features (including shock protection, and environmental protection system, and embedded error detection and repair features) to make hard drive installation, management, and diagnostics simple and worry-free.
• SecureConnect -- provides a 500 percent stronger cable-to-drive connection than first-generation
• SATA hard drives and cables; ensures backward compatibility with legacy SATA cables and backplanes. Note: Western Digital's Serial ATA cable with SecureConnect is recommended for use with all Western
• Digital Serial ATA hard drives.
• FlexPower -- connector technology that accepts power from both industry-standard and new SATA power supplies.
• Point-to-point bus configuration -- utilizes the full bandwidth of each drive interface in a networked environment.
• Hot plug support -- allows swapping of hard drives without having to power down the system or reboot; promotes system design flexibility, data availability, and serviceability.
• Backplane compatibility -- promotes expandability and flexibility in system architecture
