  • Usage

    NAS

    Disks for use in NAS (Network-Attached Storage) systems that provide access to data from all devices on a network. They are designed for continuous operation with other such disks in RAID configurations to protect data from failures.

  • Communication Protocol

    Hard drives communicate with the computer through a protocol.

    There are two protocols for HDD hard drives, SATA (for simple use) and SAS (high reliability for corporate use).

    SATA III

    A modern hard disk connection standard that offers twice the maximum speed compared to SATA II.

    The majority of hard disks use this standard.

    The motherboard must support it for the disk to operate at its maximum potential.

  • Cache Size

    Intermediate temporary memory between the disk and the computer, allowing the hard disk to provide faster and more immediate access to data. It does not have any particular benefit for the average user.

  • Form Factor

    The size of the HDD hard drive.

    3.5

    The classic size of a desktop computer hard disk drive (HDD).

  • Rotation Speed

    The most important feature along with capacity is that the faster the rotation speed of a hard disk, the faster the access and storage of data it can provide.

    7200

    The most popular HDD hard drives, about 33% faster than 5400. Suitable for all uses such as installing programs and games. For installing the operating system, programs, and games, SSD are even faster and remain the best choice.

    I got the 18TB. but only has 16.2 TB It works perfectly, running continuously for many hours without any issues. I had read other reviews saying that it makes a lot of noise, but the noise I hear is minimal. I wouldn't notice the difference from other WD Blue HDDs if it didn't occasionally make a characteristic mechanical sound that old HDDs used to make (low in volume, just distinct from other hard drives).

    If it is not used, it goes into low power mode and when activated, a low sound is heard for a short time and there is a slight delay in displaying its data. Very small delay and very discreet sound, but in a quiet room you can perceive it

    I chose him for his increased circle of registrations. He is completely silent and fast.

Τι καλύτερο έχει αυτός ο δίσκος από τον Caviar Blue 2TB που βγαίνει στη μισή τιμή;

stavrossk 2018-06-21
cpapadop

5 χρόνια αντί για 2 που έχει ο blue.
7200 rpm αντί για 5400 rpm.
128 ΜΒ cache, ενώ ο blue βγαίνει σε δύο εκδόσεις με 64 ΜΒ και 256 ΜΒ cache.
Data transfer 200MB/s (ο gold των 12 TB) σε σχέση με τα 175MB/s του blue των 6 TB.
