Cheap bulk storage for notebooks and enclosures
The WD Blue 2TB mobile drive is a 2.5" SATA hard drive for adding capacity where an SSD would be too expensive per terabyte. It suits a laptop's second drive bay, a games console or PC that takes 2.5" drives, or a USB enclosure for backups and media. At 5400 RPM with advanced power management and WD's noise-reducing technology, it runs quietly and sips power, and its 0.28" height fits slim bays. Western Digital also lists it for external enclosures and certain industrial uses.
Know its limits
This drive uses SMR recording, which is fine for storing files and media but slows down during long, sustained writes, so it is not a good fit for NAS or RAID. As a boot drive it will feel slow next to any SSD. For an operating system, pair it with an SSD and use this for data. Mac users will need to reformat it. Screws and cables are not included.
FEATURES:
- Low power consumption with advanced power management
- Noise-reducing technology for quiet operation
- SATA interface compatible with current chipsets
- Slim 2.5" form factor for notebooks and enclosures
- Works with PC and Mac (requires reformatting)
