Dual actuator technology
A head positioning system with
two actuators that improves
positional accuracy over the
data track(s). The
primary actuator provides coarse displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles. The secondary actuator uses a
piezoelectric motor to fine tune the head positioning to a higher degree of accuracy. (2 TB and 1.5 TB models only)
-
StableTrac — The motor
shaft is secured at both ends to
reduce system-induced vibration
and stabilize platters for
accurate
tracking, during read and write operations. (2 TB and 1.5 TB models only)
-
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 Performance Electronics Architecture
- Dual processor — Twice the processing power to maximize performance.
- Colossal cache — Bigger, faster cache of up to 64 MB means faster performance.
Massive Capacity
- WD Caviar Black SATA drives are available in capacities up to 2 TB.

We
perform tests on hundreds of
systems and a multitude of
platforms in our FIT Lab and
Mobile
Compatibility Lab to give our customers confidence that our drives will work in their systems.
