Product Features

Built to WD’s highest standards of 

quality and reliability, WD Blue offers 

the features and entry-level capacities 

that are ideal for your computing 

needs. WD Blue is designed by the 

brand that you trust with the quality 

you would expect for a tested, 

proven, everyday storage solution.

WD Blue is available in a broad range 

of entry-level capacities, cache sizes, 

form factors and interfaces so you 

can be sure there’s a drive that’s the 

perfect fit for your system. However, 

not all hard drives are created 

equally and for your applications that 

demand more, WD gives you the 

power of choice.

WD Blue storage is designed and 

manufactured with technology found 

in WD’s original award-winning 

desktop and mobile hard drives. 

WD Blue sets the baseline for 

everyday storage by consistently 

delivering improved performance 

over previous generations while 

successfully maintaining WD’s quality 

and reliability for over six generations. 

The difference is that our colors never 

fade, generation over generation.

While SATA has become the industry 

standard interface, WD continues to 

manufacture desktop drives with a 

PATA interface for unique or legacy 

systems.

We perform tests on hundreds of 

systems, configurations, and a 

multitude of platforms in our FIT Lab

™

 

to give our customers the confidence 

that our drives will work in their 

systems for the ultimate compatibility. 

WD Blue allows you to use our drive 

with confidence, knowing that our 

storage advancements such as 

NoTouch

™

 Ramp Load technology 

are proven and reliable everyday 

solutions.

Applications

WD Blue storage is tested and recommended for use in desktop and All-in-One PCs, industrial applications, notebooks, and external enclosures where capacity 

is not needed. For additional capacity, look at WD Green

™

 capacity storage drives. Desktop drives are not recommended for use in RAID environments. Please 

consider using WD Red

™

 hard drives for home and small office 1-5 bay NAS systems and WD enterprise hard drives for rackmount and NAS systems with more 

than 5 bays.*

* WD hard drives are designed and tested for use in specific applications and environments. This ensures that your hard drive is compatible with and functions properly in your application. Our 

hard drives are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship in the system for which they were designed. Use in systems other than for what the hard drive was designed could 

result in compatibility problems that affect proper function, unrelated to material and/or workmanship defects. For best results, be sure to select the appropriate product for your application 

by consulting our product spec sheets on our website at www.wd.com or by calling our customer support line where we would be happy to help you through the selection process.
