Western Digital Launches Industry’s First 2 TB Hard Drives

 

Western Digital (WD) recently announced the first 2 terabyte (TB) hard drive – the world’s highest capacity drive and the latest addition to WD’s Caviar Green hard drive family. The new 3.5-inch platform is based on WD’s 500 GB/platter technology with 32 MB cache, producing drives with capacities of up to 2 TB.

WD Caviar Green is one of the most successful product lines in the company’s recent history with its third-generation GreenPower technology, now providing 2 TB of proven reliable storage for today’s high-resolution files and graphics. WD Caviar Green drives are designed for use in USB/FireWire/eSATA external hard drives, desktop computers, workstations, and desktop RAID environments.

Jim Morris, WD senior vice president and general manager of client systems:

“Saving power without sacrificing storage capacity is what consumers want, and what many businesses are requiring today. With the launch of the new WD Caviar Green 2 TB hard drive, customers receive the additional capacities needed to operate today’s highly advanced programs and high-resolution digital files while using less power than typical drives with similar performance and capacities.”
