Western Digital VelociRaptor Duo is an extreme Thunderbolt HDD

The Western Digital (WD) VelociRaptor name originally came from WD’s line of high-performance hard drives which are pro-summer/enthusiast version of drives typically used in servers etc. Instead of rotating at 7200rpm, those drives could spin at 10,000rpm, which made data seek times much better.

The Western Digital VelociRaptor Duo is an external Thunderbolt case that contains two such drives, and the combined maximum capacity is 2TB (2x1TB).  Each VelociRaptor Duo box has additional Thunderbolt connectors so that users can “daisy-chain” drives to add additional capacity or simply connect more Thunderbolt devices.
