Western Digital Unveils 3TB Caviar Green Hard Drive
Posted in: green, Miscellaneous Tech, Today's ChiliIf you’re running a little low on space for all of your music, movies, and photos, or you’re planning on building a NAS to keep all of your files backed up, Western Digital’s new 3TB Caviar Green Hard Drive brings you storage space and energy efficiency all in the same package. The drive is a 5400RPM model, which doesn’t sound that special until you hear it also features four 750 GB platters and WD’s proprietary Advanced Format technology which lets them squeeze every possible GB out of those platters without losing too much to formatting data.
The new 3TB drive is a 3.5-inch model, perfect for desktop systems and external storage arrays. The new drive will set you back $239 list price, but if that’s a little out of your price range Western Digital also offers a 2.5TB version for $189 retail. Both versions are available now from select retailers. You can read more about the announcement at PCMag.com!
