Overview

This is a 450GB 3.5" HDD on the SATA interface. Sequential throughput reaches 550 MB/s reads and 520 MB/s writes, backed by 32MB of cache. SATA throughput caps near 550 MB/s — fine for game libraries and backups, slower for heavy scratch work. PlanMyPC's builder flags compatibility problems automatically and tracks the latest drive deals from multiple stores.

Western Digital backs the product through its standard warranty channels; check the listing for region-specific terms. Every published spec is tabulated below, and compatibility against your current part list is checked automatically. Not sold on this particular drive?
