Western Digital Caviar Blue WD5000AAKS 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5' Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Remember when 20 MB drives were 'it'? Then 1 GB drives were the rage? Here we are at half a terabyte folks and for less than what 30 GB drives cost when they were new. How big is a tera-anything? That's a one followed by twelve zeros. The distance light travels in two months is about one tera-mile. Too abstract? Okay if your DVD holds 8 GB this drive will hold the equivalent of 62 DVDs with room left over for part of your CD collection. There's only three things you can really get excited about in a hard drive: the size the speed and the cost. We covered size. The maximum transfer rate is 3Gb/sec using the SATA interface so it's fast with a 16MB buffer to help it keep up. It's value priced and comes with a manufacturer's limited warranty to further protect your investment. Don't run out of storage in the middle of a project; get one now!Cache: 16MBAverage Seek Time: 8.9msAverage Write Time: 10.9msAverage Latency: 4.2msFeatures: Top performance for Windows Vista IntelliSeek - Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption noise and vibration. 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.Parts: 3 years limitedLabor: 3 years limited
