Despite the name and the red color of the label it has nothing to do with the well known old series RED. Ppu it already spindle rotates at 7200 rev / min, so you need to get higher performance. Of course, this is at the expense of increased energy consumption and reduced heat.

In the consumer segment HDD disks WD ce enjoy wide popularity, as they have less energy, generate less heat and are relatively quiet while offering a good price / performance ratio.The Intel Pro e oriented higher proizvoditenost, speed of vpingela is increased collaboration supports up to 16 disk drives in the NAS.The new series of WD Red Pro ce available in several models, the difference between them is the amount of data storage.

Engine by both parties and 3D Active Balance P1us to reduce vibration and noise.Also WD Red Pro uses multiple RAFF (Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward), axial impact detection sensors, rotary and linear vibration.

It is also used u No touch technology for minimizing the likelihood of contact between the heads and the surface of the discs during shutdown of the disc.
