Introduction
WD RE3 drives combine 16 MB cache with SATA 3 Gb/s
transfer rate for lightning-fast performance in
demanding server and storage applications. Technologically
advanced acoustics minimize noise. Cool drive operation
and enhanced reliability features help protect the
drive and the data stored on it.
Features
- Dual
processor - Twice the processing power results
in a 20% performance improvement over the previous
generation.
- RAFF™
- Our 4th generation RAFF technology includes
sophisticated electronics to monitor the drive
and correct both linear and rotational vibration
simultaneously, in real time for up to a 60% performance
improvement in high vibration environments over
the previous generation of drives.
- IntelliSeek™
- Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power
consumption, noise, and vibration in active seek
modes without degrading performance.
- Multi-axis
shock sensor - An additional 3rd sensor has been
added to automatically detect subtle high frequency
shock events in all axis enabling compensation
to protect the data.
- RAID-specific,
time-limited error recovery (TLER) - Prevents
drive fallout caused by the extended hard drive
error-recovery processes common to desktop drives.
- Third
generation dynamic fly height - Each read-write
head's fly height is adjusted in real time for
optimum reliability.
- Thermal
extended burn-in test - Each drive is put through
extended burn-in testing with thermal cycling
to ensure reliable operation.
- NoTouch™
ramp 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.
- Perpendicular
Magnetic Recording (PMR) - WD RE3 drives utilize
PMR technology to achieve even greater areal density.
