Standard HDDs are notable for their construction. The enclosure conceals a mechanism that uses moving platters, complete with hard disk heads that facilitate reading and writing of data.

The crucial criterion that determines the speed of a HDD is RPM - the number of revolutions per minute. With the WD Red 2TB, you get 5400 RPM revolutions per minute. These drives are generally used in PCs and other devices meant for standard office work. Data transmission and stability is also affected by the disk buffer, usually called cache.
