WD® Launches High Performance 4 TB Black Drives For Desktop PCs In Egypt

Published Dec 19, 2012

WD®, a Western Digital company and a world leader in hard drives, announced its highest capacity desktop hard drive, the WD Black™ 4 TB. The 3.5-inch, 7200 RPM drive’s high performance and massive capacity make them perfect for gaming, high-performance desktop systems and workstations.

The award-winning WD Black hard drives combine 7200 RPM spin speed, 64 MB cache, dual stage actuator technology, SATA 6 gigabits per second (Gb/s) interface, and an integrated dual processor to deliver superlative performance in a maximum-capacity drive.

“Power computing tasks such as gaming, multimedia and video editing demand serious capacity and performance, and the new WD Black 4TB hard drives offer both without compromise,” said Khwaja Saifuddin, Senior Sales Director, Middle East, Africa & South Asia, WD. “At WD we believe that everyone has a unique digital life, so we offer a family of hard drives that can address specific needs. We give you the Power of Choice.”

WD Black 4 TB hard drives feature the following:

Dual processor – Twice the processing power to maximize performance.
Dual actuator technology – A head positioning system with two actuators that improves positional accuracy over the data track(s). The primary actuator provides coarse displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles. The secondary actuator uses piezoelectric motion to fine tune the head positioning to a higher degree of accuracy.
IntelliSeek™ – Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise and vibration.
StableTrac™ – The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate tracking during read and write operations.
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.

Price and Availability

The WD Black 4 TB (model WD4001FAEX) hard drives are available through select distributors and resellers. Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the WD Black 4 TB drive is $320.00 USD.
