WD AV-GP

Power-saving Hard Drives

Power-conserving WD AV-GP SATA hard drives take 

advantage of WD GreenPower Technology

 to meet the 

24x7 requirements of demanding audio and video 

environments. With power reduction of up to 40 percent, 

they deliver cool and quiet operation and reliability perfect 

for audio video applications such as PVRs, DVRs, set-top 

boxes (STBs) as well as surveillance video recording.

INTERFACE

SATA 3 Gb/s

WIDTH/HEIGHT

3.5-inch/1-inch

ROTATIONAL SPEED

IntelliPower

CAPACITIES

160 GB to 2 TB

24x7 reliability

These drives are designed to last in 
always-on, streaming digital audio/
video environments such as 
PVR/DVR, DVR recorders, and 
surveillance video recorders.

Reduced power 
consumption

With the combination of WD’s 
IntelliSeek, IntelliPark, and 
IntelliPower technologies, WD has 
reduced power consumption by up 
to 40 percent compared to 
competitors’ drives. Lower power 
means less heat and better 
reliability.

Quiet

Noise levels have been minimized to 
less than one sone* – virtually below 
the threshold of human hearing.

SilkStream

Optimized for smooth, continuous 
digital video playback of up to 
twelve simultaneous HD streams. 
SilkStream is compatible with the 
ATA streaming command set so CE 
customers can use standard 
streaming management and error 
recovery options.

IntelliSeek

Calculates optimum seek speeds to 
lower power consumption, noise, 
and vibration.

IntelliPower

 

A fine-tuned balance of spin speed, 
transfer rate, and caching 
algorithms designed to deliver both 
significant power savings and solid 
performance.

IntelliPark

 

Parks the recording heads off the 
disk surface during spin up, spin 
down, and when the drive is off. 
This ensures the recording head 
never touches the disk surface 
resulting in improved long term 
reliability due to less head wear, and 
improved non-operational shock 
tolerance.

Preemptive Wear Leveling 
(PWL)

The drive arm frequently sweeps 
across the disk to reduce uneven 
wear on the drive surface common 
to audio video streaming 
applications.

Advanced Format (AF)

Technology being adopted by WD 
and other drive manufacturers as 
one of multiple ways to continue 
growing hard drive capacities. AF is 
a more efficient media format that 
enables increased areal densities. 
(EURS/AURS models only)

1 million hours MTBF

Best-in-class reliability for 
mainstream 3.5-inch form-factor AV 
storage.**

* A sone is a subjective unit of loudness as perceived by a 
person with normal hearing.

** Based upon dual tuner system operating in typical 30°C air 
ambient environment.
