Western Digital is now shipping WD VelociRaptor hard drives, the next generation of its 10,000 RPM SATA "Raptor" series of drives. Designed with an enterprise-class foundation, the new hard drive comes packed with twice the capacity and a 35 percent performance increase over the previous generation. The WD VelociRaptor hard drive is built with enterprise-class mechanics and packs 300 GB of storage capacity into a 2.5-inch enterprise form factor. The 2.5-inch WD VelociRaptor drive is enclosed in the IcePack, a 3.5-inch mounting frame with a built-in heat sink - a customization that fits the drive into a standard 3.5-inch system bay and keeps this powerful drive extra cool when installed in a high-performance desktop chassis. "Demand for ever-higher PC performance continues to increase and WD is the leader in this category with the WD Raptor. We created WD VelociRaptor hard drives to lead PC enthusiasts into the next era of PC and Mac storage performance and satisfy their insatiable thirst for computing speed," said Sharad Srivastava, Director Sales (India & South Asia), Western Digital. "The new WD VelociRaptor delivers the greatest performance and reliability of all SATA hard drives currently on the market." WD's Velociraptor Drives are available through select WD's distributors in India, at select retail stores and online retailers for a suggested retail price of Rs. 16,500. |
