WD Scorpio Mobile Hard Drives

WD Scorpio 2.5-inch drives offer fast performance and low power consumption, making them ideal for notebooks and other portable devices. Now offered in capacities up to 120 GB in SATA or EIDE interface, WD Scorpio can help meet your portable storage needs with increased capacity.

  • Fast - Spins at 5400RPM and delivers seek times of 12ms. It has a standard 2MB cache with an 8 MB option.
  • Efficient - Spins at 5400RPM for fast performance but has power consumption specifications similar to slower 4200 RPM drives. Low power consumption yields increased overall reliability.
  • Quiet - features WD’s exclusive Whisper Drive technology with SoftSeek algorithms to deliver nearly inaudible operation.
  • Reliable - Provides ShockGuard to protect the drive mechanics and delicate platter surface from shocks, both when it’s in use and when it’s not. This leading-edge technology enables WD drives to meet the highest combined shock tolerance specifications: 300Gs while in operation, 900 Gs non-operating.
  • Rugged - WD Scorpio’s DuraStep Ramp locks the heads off the data disk to provide additional shock protection. Using the most technologically advanced material available on the market, the drive is able to execute a minimum of 600,000 load/unload cycles — up to twice the performance of its competitors.
