IMS SPARE - WD-IMSourcing VelociRaptor WD1600HLHX 160 GB 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

Ultra fast.

Designed around a 10,000 RPM spin speed, these SATA 6 Gb/s drives include a 64 MB cache and deliver the ultimate performance for photo and video editing.

Ultra-cool operation.

Consumes less idle power and uses similar active power as the previous generation WD VelociRaptor, while offering higher capacity and performance.

Advanced Format (AF) .

Technology 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.

Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward (RAFF).

Optimizes operation and performance when the drives are used in vibration-prone, multi-drive chassis.

Rock-solid reliability.

With 1.4 million hours MTBF, these drives have the highest available reliability rating on a high capacity SATA drive. In addition, these drives feature a 5-year limited warranty.

High capacity.

State-of-the-art technology delivers a balance of high performance and high capacity perfect for data-intensive workloads that require large amounts of storage such as video editing, 3D rendering and scientific modeling.

Pre-emptive Wear Leveling (PWL).

Ensures reliability for applications that perform a high incidence of read/write operations at the same physical location on the disk.

Environmentally conscious.

In addition to being RoHS compliant, this generation of WD VelociRaptor also provides a halogen-free design.

Ideal for:

High-performance computing, 3D rendering, digital content creation and editing, scientific computing and image management.
