Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB




Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB
When one look back it truly is amazing to see how technology has grown rapidly in the past two decades or so, especially that relating to computers. Storage capacity of today’s standard hard drive has grown quickly and prices even coming down quickly. For the same price, what you can get today may have 3 times or more the storage capacity compared to a few years back.
What do you do with a 2 Terabyte hard drive? Well games for one take up a lot of space. Not to mention most people nowadays collect large number of soundtrack and MP3s but prefer to store it on the hard drive than on CD/DVD. With 2TB you can even use it as a media server in your own home. Even if you store FLAC format music which averages about around 30MB or more, you’ll still be able to store more than 50,000 songs; way more than you really need. It is also possible to store up to 150 hours of digital video and more digital photos than you can count. The numbers varies with factors like file format but this should give you a rough idea of how much the 2TB Caviar Green can hold.
This model has a new StableTrac that helps reduce vibrations and stabilize the platters. Of the Caviar Green series, you can also be sure that this model saves on power, has lower temperatures and is quieter. Most of the other technologies built into this model is designed to lower power consumption, hence the ‘Green’. Honestly, if you are just the regular average Joe, 2TB is more than you’ll ever need, unless you do digital video or audio editing in which case you’ll never have enough. If you fall into the latter category, then this 2TB Caviar Green model is one for you.
