WD, the first to introduce an 8 MB buffer, has advanced thecaching algorithms of this new and improved WD Caviarfamily of hard drives, resulting in next-generation highperformance performance that beats all competing 8 MB-cache drives. Addto that SATA 300 MB/s transfer rates and these drives push the boundaries ofperformance for their class.Cool operation means the highest reliability even in highheatenvironments such as personal video recorders. Thatswhy these drives, the coolest on the market, are the drive ofchoice for the worlds leading consumer electronics manufacturers as well as theworlds leading PC makers.The technology that Toms Hardware called very fast andnearly silent is repeated in this family of drives. We haveminimized noise to levels virtually below the threshold ofhuman hearing with our WhisperDrive technology. And to cut seek noise, SoftSeek technology streamlines read/write seeking algorithms, resulting in thedrive operating more efficiently when accessing and writing data.
