WD Red Pro 10TB

The WD Red Pro 10TB hard disk ranks among the high load internal HDDs for 24/7 operation in data centres. The 3.5" format is made chiefly for data centres and desktop PCs. One of the key parameters is clearly the rotational speed (RPM). The 7200 RPM RPM provides better system response across the board. The overall data capacity of the HDD is 10000 GB. The drive uses a 256 MB memory cache. The data transfer between the Western Digital hard disk and the PC or other devices is facilitated via the SATA III interface.

Other Hard Drive Features

The HDD boasts a unique design. The enclosure conceals a mechanism that utilises moving platters accompanied by disk read and write heads. These moving parts are not particularly resistant against shock or impact, but on the upside, this design also delivers its amazing price/capacity ratio. The key criterion that affects the speed of a hard drive is the number of platter revolutions per minute, generally known as RPM. In case of the WD Red Pro 10TB, you would get 7200 RPM RPM. This is great news for people who demand more from their devices, such as graphic or video editors - in short, people who work with large amounts of data. Data transmission and overall stability is also significantly affected the embedded buffer memory known as cache. The Western Digital hard drive features a 256 MB cache that keeps the last written data for their fast retrieval and reading.

Connecting the Western Digital HDD

In order to mount the WD Red Pro 10TB in the device of your choice, it requires a 3.5" slot. Data sharing happens via the SATA III interface with a standard speed of 6 Gbit/s. The technology is one of the most popular HDD data transfer solutions available and delivers a throughput of 600 MB/s.
