Enterprise Hard Drive Products
 
We offer multiple product lines to address enterprise market needs, including:
 
  •  the WD VelociRaptortm, which is a 300 GB 10,000 RPM 2.5-inch enterprise-class drive with the SATA interface for enterprise applications requiring high performance and high reliability;
 
  •  the WD® RE family of drives, with capacities ranging from 160 GB to 1 TB. The WD® RE family serves the SATA market and has enhanced reliability features and ratings when contrasted to our desktop products; and
 
  •  low-power versions of the WD® RE family of drives featuring WD’s GreenPowertm technology, which reduces power consumption as much as 40 percent compared with standard hard drives. Lower power consumption reduces total cost of ownership for our customers by cutting energy costs and lowering operating temperatures, which contributes to longer reliability.
 
Both WD VelociRaptortm and WD® RE drives may be used in, but are not limited to, applications such as databases, e-commerce and super computing in life science, oil and gas and similar industries, business records management, e-mail, file serving, web serving, near-line storage, medical records, engineering data management, video broadcasting and video security. The WD VelociRaptortm also has been popular for use in the high-end desktop PC market for applications including gaming and advanced CAD/CAM (“computer aided design/computer-aided manufacturing”) systems.
