WD RE3 drives combine up to 32 MB cache with SATA 3 Gb/s transfer rate for lightning-fast performance in demanding server & storage applications. Technologically advanced acoustics minimize noise. Cool drive operation & enhanced reliability features help protect the drive & the data stored on it. Key Features Massive capacity
- 1 TB Dual processor
- Twice the processing power results in a 20% performance improvement over the previous generation. Stable Trac™
- The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration & stabilize platters for accurate tracking during read & write operations. RAFF™
- Our fourth generation RAFF technology
Includes:: sophisticated electronics to monitor the drive & correct both linear & rotational vibration in real time for up to a 60% performance improvement in high vibration environments over the previous generation of drives. Intelli Seek™
- Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise, & vibration. Multi-axis shock sensor
- Automatically detects the subtlest shock events & compensates to protect the data. RAID-specific, time-limited error recovery (TLER)
- Prevents drive fallout caused by the extended hard drive error-recovery processes common to desktop drives. Third generation dynamic fly height
- Each read-write head’s fly height is adjusted in real time for optimum reliability. Thermal extended burn-in test
- Each drive is put through extended burn-in testing with thermal cycling to ensure reliable operation. No Touch™ ramp load technology
- The recording head never touches the disk media ensuring significantly less wear to the recording head & media as well as better drive protection in transit. Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR)
- WD RE3 drives utilize PMR technology to achieve even greater areal density, reliability, & design margin. Ideal for servers, storage arrays, video surveillance, & other demanding write-intensive applications.
