The product has been built, rebuilt or repaired at the original manufacturer's factory (Note we NEVER sell 3rd party repaired items, as we do not find them to be reliable enough). Often these products are extremely close to new in condition, except that they contain at least one recycled or repaired component. Failure rates are often lower on these devices since they have been far more thoroughly tested than new items.

WD AV-GP
Video and Surveillance Drives
WD AV-GP SATA hard drives store more hi-def audio and video than ever before – up to 3 TB. They are optimized with SilkStream™ technology to capture data from up to 12 simultaneous HD video streams. And with 24x7 operation, low temperature, and best-in-class reliability, WD AV-GP hard drives are ideal for DVR/PVR and video surveillance applications.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Highest capacity for audio/video storage
WD AV-GP SATA drives now offer unrivaled storage capacity up to 3 TB – perfect for today’s storage intensive applications.
24x7 reliability
These drives are designed to last in high temperature alwayson streaming digital audio/video environments such as PVR/DVR, IPTV, and video surveillance systems.
Compatible
Tested for compatibility in a broad range of AV products including set top boxes, DVR/PVR, and mainstream video surveillance systems. For drives with greater than 2.19 TB capacity, compatibility is selective to PVRs and surveillance systems that are compatible with hard drives exceeding 2.19 TB. For more information on large capacity drive compatibility, go to http://avlargecapacitydrives.com.
Reduced power consumption
WD AV-GP drives consume less power by up to 40 percent compared to 7200 RPM hard drives. Lower power means less heat and greater reliability
Quiet
Noise levels have been minimized to less than one sone* - virtually below the threshold of human hearing.
SilkStream
Optimized for smooth, continuous digital video playback of up to twelve simultaneous HD streams. SilkStream is compatible with the ATA streaming command set so CE customers can use standard streaming management and error recovery options.
IntelliSeek™
Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise, and vibration.
IntelliPower™
A fine-tuned balance of spin speed, transfer rate, and caching algorithms designed to deliver both significant power savings and solid performance.
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.
Preemptive Wear Leveling (PWL)
The drive arm frequently sweeps across the disk to reduce uneven wear on the drive surface common to audio video streaming applications.
Advanced Format (AF)
Technology being adopted by WD and other drive manufacturers as one of multiple ways to continue growing hard drive capacities. AF is a more efficient media format that enables increased areal densities. (EURS/EURX/AUDX models only)
1 million hours MTBF
Best-in-class reliability for mainstream 3.5-inch form-factor AV storage.
Compatibility:
The Western Digital WD5000AVCS is compatible with any server that accepts 3.5"x1" (LFF) SATA drives.
