„ Small form factor – This ultra fast 2.5-inch hard drive is engineered to fit into blade servers
and other enterprise storage configurations. (Not designed for use in laptop or notebook
computers)
„ Ultra-cool operation – Consumes less idle power and uses similar active power as the
previous generation WD VelociRaptor, while offering double the capacity and higher
performance.
„ IcePack™ mounting frame - The 2.5-inch WD VelociRaptor is enclosed in a backplane-
ready 3.5-inch enterprise-class mounting frame with a built-in heat sink that keeps this
powerful little drive extra cool when installed in high-performance desktop chassis.

ensuring significantly less wear to the recording head and media as well as better drive
protection in transit.
„ Pre-emptive Wear Leveling (PWL) – Designed to ensure reliability for applications that
perform a high number of incoming commands.
„ Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward (RAFF™) – Optimizes operation and performance
when the drives are used in vibration-prone, multi-drive chassis.
