Architecture
Dual actuator technology
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 and 1.5 TB models
only)
We perform tests on hundreds of
systems and a multitude of platforms
in our FIT Lab™ and Mobile
„
A head positioning system with two
actuators that improves positional
accuracy over the data track(s). The
primary actuator provides coarse
displacement using conventional
electromagnetic actuator principles.
The secondary actuator uses a
piezoelectric motor to fine tune the
head positioning to a higher degree
of accuracy. (2 TB and 1.5 TB models
only)
Dual processor — Twice the
processing power to maximize
performance.
Compatibility Lab to give our
„
customers confidence that our drives
will work in their systems.
Colossal cache — Bigger, faster
cache of up to 64 MB means faster
performance.
5-year limited warranty
„
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.
Massive Capacity
WD Caviar Black SATA drives are
available in capacities up to 2 TB.
Applications
