    WD 2TB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s Caviar Green Hard Product Description

    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.

    • Reduced power consumption - WD has reduced power consumption making it possible for energy conscious customers to build systems with higher capacities and the right balance of system performance, ensured reliability, and energy conservation
    • Cool and quiet - drives that benefit from WD GreenPower Technology yield lower operating temperatures for increased reliability and low acoustics for ultra-quiet PCs and external drives
    • IntelliPower technology - a fine-tuned balance of spin speed, transfer rate, and caching algorithms designed to deliver both significant power savings and solid performance
    • 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
    • Advanced Format (AF) - technology being adopted by WD and other drive manufacturers as one of multiple ways to continue growing hard drive capacities. AF is a more efficient media format that enables increased areal densities

    price hike
    review by:Anonymousoperating system:Windows 7

    the price hike is the fact that 25% of production was out of taiwan which is flooded, also a further 80%+ of hdd component makers were based there also. wile production is being moved to other global facilities the big companies are buying up and reserving future batches of HDD production, this driving the prices up.

    wile there are HDDs stockpiled and effectivly going through the distribution channells they will slowly dip wile the production is moved and ramped up, artifically inflating prices, wile the big companies can still secure there big orders for cheap HDDs to fulfill there production, it is invaribly the consumer like us who will see the price hike for the next 3-6 months, certainly wile middle companies such as ebuyer take a increased profit fromt eh currect HDD stock they have by charging a much higher price. i watched this disk price go from £60 to £215 in a matter of a week.

    wish i brought the 4 i needed when i had the chance. jsut have to sit and wait.

    2TB drives
    review by:Anonymousoperating system:Not Applicable

    I like other contributors am astounded at the price hikes for drives of all persuasions and want to encourage other people in the market to hold fast as a protest to the prices.
    We will all buy these again when the prices are reasonable, at the moment they certainly are not. I can wait -will you join me?
