Western Digital Debuts 2TB Hard Drive

Western Digital (WD) introduced the world’s first 2 terabyte (TB) hard drive. Based on the company’s WD Caviar Green product family, the new 3.5-inch platform uses 500 GB/platter technology (with 400 Gb/in2 areal density) with 32 MB cache. In addition, the drive incorporates “StableTrac” technology, which secures the motor shaft at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking during read and write operations. WD’s “IntelliPower” technology fine-tunes the balance of spin speed. MSRP is US$299.
