WD Scorpio Blue 5400 RPM 2.5-inch SATA and EIDE hard
drives from Western Digital deliver lightning-fast and ultra-
quiet performance hand-in-hand with low power consumption.
In addition, these hard drives are designed with ruggedness,
reliability, and data-protection features that actively watch over
valuable data. Capacities range from 80 to 500 GB.
Massive capacity — Whether they are in an external drive or a
notebook computer, 500 GB WD Scorpio Blue 2.5-inch drives
offer the most available capacity for space-hungry operating
systems like Windows Vista
™ , with plenty of room left over for
photos, music, and video.
Quiet — In a notebook drive, silence is golden. WD’s exclusive
WhisperDrive
™ combines state-of-the-art seeking algorithms
to yield one of the quietest 2.5-inch hard drives on the market.
These algorithms also optimize the way a drive seeks for data,
which significantly improves power consumption. So now
silence (and longer battery life) is golden.
Reliable and rugged — WD’s ShockGuard
™ technology
protects the drive mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks.
WD’s SecurePark
™ 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.
