Dual Actuator Technology The WD Caviar Black (2 TB and 1.5 TB models only) features a head positioning system with two actuators to improve positional accuracy over the data track(s). The primary actuator provides coarse displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles. The secondary actuator uses a piezoelectric motor to fine tune the head positioning to a higher degree of accuracy.
StableTrac The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking, during read and write operations. (2 TB and 1.5 TB models only)
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.
High Performance Electronics Architecture The electronics architecture of WD Caviar Black employs dual processor - twice the processing power, and up to 64 MB colossal cache to maximize performance.
IntelliSeek Technology WD’s IntelliSeek technology proactively calculates an optimum seek speed to eliminate hasty movement of the actuator, resulting in lower power consumption, noise and vibration.
SATA 6 Gb/s Interface SATA 6 Gb/s (SATA Revision 3.0) provides twice the bus bandwidth of SATA 3Gb/s (SATA II) along with enhancements including a new Native Command Queuing (NCQ) and improved power management capabilities. SATA 6 Gb/s uses the same connector as SATA 3 Gb/s and is compatible with Microsoft Windows 7/Vista/XP/2000 and Mac OS X.

BigBoxChevy 5/22/2013 7:20:42 AM Tech Level: 3/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5Dissapointed Pros: Only Pro is that it go to my house quickly. Cons: DOA, Let me just say that i thought WD was suppose to be the better harddrives. Well my first harddrive was DOA i installed the OS and after the first restart it started ticking. I returned it and they sent me another replacement. The second drive would not save any files as hindering me from installing my os without it having major issues, including packet loss and corrupted files. Im asking for a refund and buying a Hard drive from Best Buy. Overall very disappointed with all this hard-drive problems. Idk if i got a bad batch or what but im tired of dealing with returns and wait time to replace it. It has been a month now and i still dont have a working computer. Other Thoughts: Im not bashing on Western Digital. But does anyone test these hard-drives before they send them? Might go ssd from now on. Did you find this review helpful?

N/A 5/22/2013 5:24:42 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5eh Pros: pretty decent when it works. Cons: First one started becoming really really slow and failing s.m.a.r.t. test right after installation of windows. Did an RMA which took about a week and the new one seems to be working fine. Other Thoughts: Once my wallet grows a little more, I'll turning this into a storage drive and will be installing windows on an ssd. I wasn't very impressed with all the failures I read about for this drive, considering its WD's "leading edge" drive. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

dddxxx 5/20/2013 3:13:55 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 5/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 2/5Died after 18 months Pros: Did well while it worked. Over the last few months, seemingly random unmounts occurred. This was mounted in a Rosewill R2-JBOD external enclosure, hooked up to a Mac via USB. It was used for media storage, and ran 24/7 with auto power-off enabled in the OS. Cons: Lasted only 18 months. I usually expect 36 months' life out of hard drives that are constantly on. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
