Product Features

Sophisticated performance 

enhancing features deliver the  speed 

you need for demanding applications 

like photo and video editing and 

Internet gaming.

High performance, high capacity, 

high reliability, and cutting-edge 

technology make up WD Black, the 

ideal drive for those who demand 

only the best.

WD Black carries the highest 

available warranty protection on the 

market, a 5-year limited warranty.

Twice the processing power to 

maximize performance.  

WD’s dynamic caching algorithm 

improves performance in real time by 

optimizing cache allocation between 

reads and writes. For example, if 

there’s an overwhelming percentage 

of read traffic as opposed to write 

traffic, the drive automatically 

allocates more cache for read data, 

which reduces congestion and 

improves overall drive performance.

Enhanced reliability features help 

protect the drive and the data stored 

on it.

™

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.

™

The motor shaft is secured at both 

ends to reduce system-induced 

vibration and stabilize platters for 

accurate tracking during read and 

write operations which enables 

consistently higher performance.  

(4 TB, 3 TB and 2 TB models only)

We perform tests on hundreds 

of systems and a multitude of 

platforms in our FIT Lab™ to give our 

customers confidence that our drives 

will work in their systems.
