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 (available on the 2 TB model only).
Tested for compatibility.
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.
The WD advantage.
We put our products through extensive Functional Integrity
Testing (F.I.T.) prior to any product launch. On average, each
new product goes through 600,000 hours of testing. WD also has a
detailed Knowledge Base with more than 1,000 helpful articles.
