  • WD Specs sheet – WD3000GLFS
  • Engineered for maximum speed! WD VelociRaptor, the newest member of our unique class of 10,000 RPM SATA hard drives, combines a SATA 3 Gb/s interface and 16 MB cache, to deliver performance that’s up to 35% faster than its speedy older brother, the WD Raptor®.
  • Product Benefits
  • Killer Speed – Built on the performance bloodlines of WD Raptor, these 10,000 RPM drives, with SATA 3 Gb/s interface and 16 MB cache, deliver mind-bending performance. Not only are they 35% faster than the previous generation of WD Raptor drives, but they also beat out all other competitors in the field.
  • Rock-solid Reliability – Designed and manufactured to mission-critical enterprise-class standards to provide enterprise reliability in high duty cycle environments. With 1.4 million hours MTBF, these drives have the highest available reliability rating on a high-capacity SATA drive.
  • Double the Capacity – State-of-the-art technology packs twice the capacity per disk compared to its older brother WD Raptor, resulting in 300 GB of high-performance storage space in this enterprise-class drive.
  • IcePack™ Mounting Frame – The 2.5-inch WD VelociRaptor is enclosed in a 3.5-inch mounting frame with a built-in heat sink that keeps this powerful little drive extra cool when installed in a 3.5-inch drive bay.
  • Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward (RAFF™) – Optimizes operation and performance when the drives are used in vibration-prone, multi-drive chassis.
  • SecurePark™ – Parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up, spin down and when the drive is off. This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in improved long-term reliability and increased drive protection when the chassis is moved.
  • The WD Promise: WD understands the importance of the information you save to your hard drive and we are committed to protecting that data with exceptionally reliable products, advanced data protection technology, and superior customer support. No one does more to safeguard your data than WD.
