The WD Red 10TB hard drive ranks among the high load internal HDDs for the NAS storage solution environment. 3.5" HDDs are designed mainly for data centres and desktop PCs. One of the main parameters is undoubtedly the number of revolutions per minute (RPM). 5400 RPM should satisfy the demands of any ordinary user. The overall data capacity of the HDD is 10000 GB. The storage features a 256 MB memory cache. All the data communication takes place via the SATA III interface.
The HDD boasts a unique design. Inside the drive there is a mechanism that uses moving platters accompanied by hard disk heads that read and write the data. These mechanical parts are admittedly more sensitive to shocks, but this design delivers a great combo of a low price and great storage capacity. The crucial parameter that determines the speed of a platter hard disk is the number of platter revolutions per minute, generally known as RPM. In case of the WD Red 10TB, you get 5400 RPM RPM. This is a popular model for laptops and other home devices that aren't built for high performance. File access speed and stability is also significantly affected the embedded buffer memory known as cache. The Western Digital hard disk features a 256 MB cache that keeps the last written data for their fast retrieval and reading.
If you want to mount the WD Red 10TB in the device of your choice, it requires a 3,5" slot. All communication with the computer is done through the SATA III interface, boasting a standard speed of 6 Gbit/s. This technology ranks among the most popular HDD data transfer options available and delivers a speed of 600 MB/s. The dimensions of the HDD are 101,6 × 147 × 26,1 mm.
