Designed for daily desktop storage

This Western Digital WD Black drive provides one terabyte of capacity on a 3.5 inch form factor. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 32 MB cache for responsive everyday computing tasks.

Verify SATA interface and bay space

Your motherboard must offer a SATA 3.0Gb/s port and a standard 3.5 inch drive bay. The bare drive arrives without cables or mounting screws, so confirm you have spares before ordering.

Installs as a primary or secondary volume

The low-profile 1.0 inch height fits most desktop chassis without clearance issues. It connects via a standard SATA data cable and power connector, leaving PCIe slots free for other expansion cards.

Questions about this item

Does the bare drive include cables or mounting brackets, or must they be purchased separately?

The unit is supplied as a bare drive only; SATA data and power cables plus any 3.5 inch mounting hardware are not included.

Which capacity and cache combination suits everyday desktop use?

The 1 TB model with 32 MB cache and 7200 RPM spindle is the single configuration offered for this series.

What does the 3.0 Gb/s SATA link mean for actual transfer speeds?

The interface caps burst throughput at 3.0 Gb/s, so sustained read and write rates will be limited by that link and the 7200 RPM mechanical speed.
