Product Features
Solid state drives with WD
quality and reliability
Protecting your data is in our DNA.
With years of experience building drives
that watch over data, we understand
the exacting requirements needed to
keep your data safe. These SSDs are
no exception. Before we put the WD
brand on them, they are designed and
tested in WD’s FIT Lab™on hundreds
of systems to pass our rigorous data
integrity and reliability screening.
Fast data transfer
Up to 250 MB/s read and up to
170 MB/s write transfer rates allow
your system to run faster so you can
work more efficiently.
SSDs for extreme conditions
Because there are no moving parts,
these rugged SSDs deliver a high
tolerance for shock, vibration and
extreme environments. Perfect for
notebook computers that live on
the edge.
Low power consumption
Translates to longer battery life for
portable computers.
Advanced wear-leveling
Lengthens SSD life and preserves
speed with a combination of dynamic
and static wear-leveling algorithms
designed to overcome performance
degradation that occurs as a result of
continual heavy use.
TRIM command support
(Windows®7)
Helps maintain the SSD’s performance
throughout its lifespan.
Native Command Queuing
(NCQ)
Increases the performance of SATA
drives by placing read/write commands
in the optimal sequential order for the
fastest execution.
Advanced error correction
Enables error-free data transmission
by deploying advanced correction
technologies to detect and correct
errors.
Data integrity protection
Helps ensure data integrity and
availability by preventing data loss
from unexpected power loss during
write operations.
Compatible
Works in any system that accepts a
SATA hard drive with a standard
9.5 mm 2.5-inch form factor.
