About WD Caviar
The WD Caviar Black 3TB 3.5" Internal Hard Drive is designed for enthusiasts and creative professionals looking for leading-edge performance. This 3.5-inch desktop drive is perfect for high-performance applications like photo and video editing, gaming and power PCs. With a 3TB storage capacity, SATA interface and transfer speeds up to 6 Gbps, it is ideal for demanding applications that require high performance. The Caviar Black uses NoTouch Ramp Load technology, which prevents the recording heads from resting on the disk during spin up, spin down and when the drive is off. This results in a more reliable drive due to the limited head wear.
