Western Digital VelociRaptor 160GB WD1600HLHX Hard Drive - Next Day Delivery

Brand New Hard Drive
160GB, Enterprise Storage Edition
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.
IcePack mounting frame.
The
2.5-inch hard drive is enclosed in a backplane-ready 3.5-inch mounting
frame with a built-in heat sink that keeps this powerful little drive
extra cool when installed in high-performance desktop chassis.
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.
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.
