Product Features  
WD’s commitment to sustainability – WDs green initiative goes beyond the  
product level, focusing on recycling and improving the cleanliness of the air,  
water and land.  
Reduced power consumption  
Best-in-class power management  
technology delivers significant power  
savings and solid performance.  
IntelliSeek™  
Calculates optimum seek speeds to  
lower power consumption, noise and  
vibration.  
ƒ Leading the way to green hard  
drives – WD led the industry in  
creating a new category of hard  
drives that use less power and  
helps to reduce the worlds energy  
demands one computer user at  
a time. With over 90 million WD  
Green drives sold* customers using  
WD Green drives have saved the  
planet over 466 million kwh of  
power – nearly equaling the annual  
power production of a single coal  
power plant!  
ƒ Conflict-free materials – As a  
leader in hard drive manufacturing,  
WD proudly guarantees our hard  
drives are built with 100% conflict-  
free raw materials.  
Cool and quiet  
Tested for compatibility  
WD GreenPower Technologyyields  
lower operating temperatures for  
increased reliability and low acoustics  
perfect for ultra-quiet PCs and  
external drives.  
We perform tests on hundreds of  
systems and a multitude of platforms  
in our FIT Labto give our customers  
confidence that our drives will work in  
their systems.  
ƒ Halogen free – In addition to being  
RoHS compliant, all WD Green  
drives are lead and halogen free,  
resulting in less pollutants getting  
into our environment.  
NoTouchramp load technology  
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.  
ƒ Reduced rare earths  
dependency – WDs next-  
generation WD Green hard drives  
are built using less rare earth  
minerals.  
*Data reflects approximate drives sold as of March 2012.  
Applications  
WD Green hard drives are tested and recommended for use as secondary storage in PCs, external enclosures and applications that require cool and  
quiet operation. 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  
selection process.  
The WD Advantage  
WD puts our products through extensive Functional Integrity Testing (F.I.T.) prior to any product launch. This testing ensures our products consistently meet the

As used for storage capacity, one megabyte (MB) = one million bytes, one gigabyte (GB) = one billion bytes, and one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment. As used for buffer or cache, one megabyte (MB) = 1,048,576 bytes. As used for transfer  
rate or interface, megabyte per second (MB/s) = one million bytes per second, and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second. Effective maximum SATA 3 Gb/s transfer rate calculated according to the Serial ATA specification published by the SATA-IO organization as of the date of this specification
