Description
Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD2500BEVE 250GB 5.4K SFF 2.5" PATA / IDE Hard Drive - Refurbished
Quiet - In a notebook drive, silence is golden. WD’s exclusive WhisperDrive™ combines state-of-the-art seeking algorithms to yield one of the quietest 2.5-inch hard drives on the market. These algorithms also optimize the way a drive seeks for data, which significantly improves power consumption. So now silence (and longer battery life) is golden.
Reliable and Rugged - WD's ShockGuard™ technology protects the drive mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks. WD's SecurePark ™ parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up, spin down and when the drive is off. This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in improved long term reliability due to less head wear, and improved non-operational shock tolerance.
Fast and Efficient - With 5400 RPM spin speed and 12 ms access time even the most demanding customer will appreciate the performance achieved by WD Scorpio Blue drives.
