Western Digital AV-GP 2.0 TB SATA Drive
This 3.5-inch internal hard drive provides 2.0 TB of storage on a SATA 3Gb/s interface. It is designed for 24x7 audio and video environments such as DVRs and surveillance systems. The drive uses IntelliPower technology for cool and quiet operation. Buyers needing a drive for constant video recording will find it suitable.
Upgrading from smaller AV drives
Replacing a lower-capacity AV drive with this 2.0 TB model extends recording time for surveillance or PVR use. The jump is worth it when existing storage fills too quickly under continuous write loads. The 64 MB cache helps sustain streaming performance during multi-channel capture. It is not for users who need faster random access for operating systems or gaming.
Check SATA power and bay space
Verify your system has a free 3.5-inch drive bay and a SATA data port on the motherboard or controller. Ensure the power supply provides a SATA power connector for the drive. Confirm the enclosure or chassis can accommodate a standard 3.5-inch form factor. No special drivers are required for standard AHCI operation.
