Western Digital provides you with reliable and durable drives in the Scorpio Black HDD drive line. To start, they build sturdy mechanical architecture, such as using a rigid stainless-steel top, which makes it about 1.5 times more durable than average drives. They have also implemented the industry-leading ShockGuard technology, which will protect the drive’s mechanics and platter surfaces from impact vibration.For additional non-operational shock tolerance, the DuraStep Ramp feature secures the recording heads away from the disk, which results in much less wear and tear, meaning your drive will really last. If the worst should occur, this hard drive is equipped with hot swap, so you can be confident that your data will not be lost. Perhaps one of the best features of all, this s hard drive was built for quiet performance. Western Digital’s WhisperDrive technology reduces noise output to create a virtually silent drive. With a sound emission of 22 dB, you won’t even know your laptop is on. Meanwhile, the state-of-the-art SoftSeek technology streamlines algorithms to minimize seek noise. These same algorithms speed up the drive’s seek times (12ms average), which improves battery consumption as well. With its long-term reliability, durability, speed, and broad compatibility, the drive pleases even the most demanding laptop and portable device needs. This Western Digital Scorpio Black WD2500BEKT-75a25t0 250GB HDD internal hard drive will provide the best performance if kept between 32 and 140 degrees Fahrenheit with a humidity range between 8 and 90 percent. It is compliant with S.M.A.R.T. standards. Actual dimensions of the Scorpio Black drive are 0.37-inch high by 2.75 inches wide by 3.94 inches deep, with a weight of 3.49 ounces. For additional storage space for your existing laptop, notebook computer, or similar device, consider swapping out what your device has now with the Western Digital hard drive.
