Western Digital's 180GB Caviar Special Edition hard drive is designed to maximize desktop computer performance for activities requiring high-performance storage such as computer gaming, digital video editing, and file server applications.
Superior Performance:
The Special Edition hard drive provides a higher percentage of cache hits and significantly faster time to data than industry-standard 2MB versions. Within the complex operations of hard drives, the buffer is used to hold the results of recent reads from the disk, and also to "pre-fetch" information that is likely to be requested in the near future. The use of an increased buffer improves the performance by reducing the number of physical accesses to the disk and allowing data to stream from the disk uninterrupted by mechanical operations.
Data Protection Enhancements:
Data Lifeguard™ is an expanded set of data protection tools that includes shock protection, an environmental protection system, and embedded error detection and repair features that automatically find, isolate, and repair problem areas that may develop over the extended use of the hard drive. With these enhanced data reliability features, the drive can perform more accurate monitoring and error repair and deliver exceptional data security.
Data Lifeguard Tools™ is a set of software utilities that work in conjunction with the embedded Data Lifeguard features to make hard drive installation, drive management diagnostics, and repair simple and worry-free.
Shock Guard™ provides outstanding improvements in shock and vibration protection for the newest WD Caviar drives. Shock Guard allows instantaneous data protection at high shock values to achieve leading shock specifications.
Important Note: Use Data Lifeguard tools 10.0 or later installation software to access the full capacity of your hard drive. Hard drives larger than 137GB require an Ultra ATA controller card to utilize full drive capacity.
