WD Caviar Green drives use less power and support quieter, cooler-running desktop PCs and external storage devices.

As hard drive capacities increase, the power required to run those drives increases as well. WD Caviar Green drives make it possible for energy-conscious customers to build systems with higher capacities and the right balance of system performance, ensured reliability, and energy conservation. 3 years Limited Warranty

Features

1. Reduced power consumption - WD has reduced power consumption by up to 40
percent compared to standard desktop drives with the combination of WD's
IntelliSeek, NoTouch, and IntelliPower technologies

2. Helps enable eco-friendly PCs - WD Caviar Green drives yield an average drive
power savings of 4-5 watts over standard desktop drives making 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

3. Cool and quiet - WD GreenPower Technology yields lower operating temperatures
for increased reliability and low acoustics for ultra-quiet PCs and external drives

4. Massive capacity - Capacities up to 2 TB offer the most available capacity for storage-
intensive programs and space-hungry operating systems, like Windows Vista, with
plenty of room left over for photos, music, and video

5. Perfect for external drives - External drive manufacturers can eliminate the need for a
fan in a high-capacity product with a WD Caviar Green drive, the coolest and quietest
in its class

6. IntelliPower - A fine-tuned balance of spin speed, transfer rate and caching
algorithms designed to deliver both significant power savings and solid performance

7. IntelliSeek - Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise,
and vibration. View demo >

8. 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

9. Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR) - Employs PMR technology to achieve
even greater areal density

10. StableTrac - The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced
vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking, during read and write
operations. (2 TB models only) View demo >

11. Low power spin-up - WD Caviar Green drives consume less current during startup
allowing lower peak loads

12. Advanced power technology - Electronic components deliver best-in-class low
power consumption for reduced power requirements and increased reliability
