WD Caviar Blue Desktop Hard Drives
- High Capacity, Proven Reliability - WD expands their award-winning desktop and mobile storage lineup with WD Blue PC hard drives. Extensively tested and built to WD’s high standards, WD Blue offers a wide variety of capacities - ranging from 250 GB to the massive 6 TB – in both desktop and mobile models. Drive WD Blue with confidence – our colors never fade.
- Storage Capacity Up to 6 TB - Boost your PC storage with WD Blue drives, the brand designed specifically for desktop and all-in-one PCs. The WD Blue family now delivers data storage capacities up to 6 TB.
- Improve PC Performance - Pair a larger capacity drive with an SSD to give your desktop a performance and storage boost. The SSD maximizes speed of data access, while the WD Blue drive stores up to 6 TB of movies, games, files, applications and more.
- Future-Proof Your Storage - With better technology comes bigger storage needs. Cameras that record ultra-high definition video at 4K resolution at 30 frames per second require a ton of storage. Handling all that media is a snap with our 6 TB drive.
- IntelliSeek - Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise and vibration.
- Cool Operation - WD continues to develop new and innovative ways to keep drives cool while they are operating which helps protect the drive and the data stored on it.
- Quiet - Noise levels have been minimized to less than one sone – virtually below the threshold of human hearing.
- ShockGuard - Instantaneously protects the hard drive against damage from bumps and vibrations while it is running. This technology enables WD Caviar drives to achieve industry-leading shock specifications.
- NoTouch Ramp Load Technology - Parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up, spin down, and when the drive is off. This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in improved long term reliability due to less head wear, and improved non operational shock tolerance.
- Preemptive Wear Leveling (PWL) - The drive arm frequently sweeps across the disk to reduce uneven wear on the drive surface common to audio video streaming applications.
- Compatible - We perform tests on hundreds of systems and a multitude of platforms in our FIT Lab to give our customers confidence that our drives will work in their systems.
