The Deskstar 7K500 sustains the leadership momentum with a 25 percent capacity increase over the previous generation and double the capacity in the same space as a 250GB drive. A 2TB (terabyte) system can now be achieved with just four standard form factor ATA drives. This capacity milestone enhances system reliability by reducing the number of drives needed to support the most demanding applications. The Deskstar 7K500 is the second generation Deskstar drive to enable the host system to optimize storage of data. This is achieved by Hitachi's “Smooth Stream” technology which gives the host control over the drive's error recovery process. This important ATA-7 Standards feature fine tunes the Deskstar to capture long audio or video data streams.The Streaming Feature Set has features that enable an AV system to maximize performance of the disk drive.

The 500GB WD RE3 drive combines a 16 MB cache with SATA 3 Gb/s transfer rate for lightning-fast performance in demanding server and storage applications. WD's 4th generation RAFF technology includes sophisticated electronics to monitor the drive and correct both linear and rotational vibration simultaneously, in real time for up to a 60% performance improvement in high vibration environments over the previous generation of drives. Each drive is put through extended burn-in testing with thermal cycling to ensure reliable operation. With 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. Intelliseek technology calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise, and vibration in active seek modes without degrading performance. Less
