Product Features
WD Green is a part of WD’s complete lineup of internal hard drives.
Cool and quiet
WD GreenPower Technology
™
yields lower operating
temperatures for increased
reliability and low acoustics
perfect for ultra-quiet PCs
and external drives.
Reduced power
consumption
WD Green drives deliver both
significant power savings and
solid performance. These
drives also consume less
current during startup allowing
lower peak loads on systems
as they are booted.
Eco-conscious
WD Green drives are
innovatively designed and
manufactured with lead-free,
conflict-free and halogen-free
materials to help ensure a
sustainable future.
Conflict-free materials
As a leader in hard drive
manufacturing, WD proudly
guarantees our hard drives
are built with 100% conflict-
free raw materials.
Halogen free
In addition to being RoHS
compliant, all WD Green
drives are lead and halogen
free, resulting in less pollutants
getting into our environment.
Reduced rare
earths dependency
WD’s next-generation
WD Green hard drives are
built using less rare earth
minerals.
IntelliSeek
™
Calculates optimum seek
speeds to lower power
consumption, noise and
vibration.
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.
Tested for compatibility
We perform tests on hundreds
of systems and a multitude of
platforms in our FIT Lab
™
to
give our customers confidence
that our drives will work in their
systems.
