The WD Red Plus 2TB hard drive belongs among the high load internal HDDs for NAS and ordinary data centres. The 3.5" format is designed primarily for desktop computers and data centres. One of the crucial characteristics is obviously the rotational speed of the HDD. The 5400 RPM RPM meets the needs of most ordinary PC users. The hard disk provides a storage capacity of 2000 GB. The drive features a 128 MB memory cache. You can link the Western Digital hard disk and the PC or other devices takes place through the SATA III interface.
Platter hard disks have a notably special construction. Inside the hard drive there is a mechanism with moving platters accompanied by disk read/write heads. These moving parts can be damaged by a shock or impact, but this design delivers an affordable price tag and high storage capacity. The key parameter that determines the speed of a platter hard disk is RPM - the number of revolutions per minute. In case of the WD Red Plus 2TB, we have 5400 RPM revolutions per minute. This is a popular model for PCs designed for effective office work but nothing particularly performance-intensive. File access speed and stability is also impacted by the disk buffer, usually called cache. The Western Digital hard drive includes a 128 MB cache that keeps the last written data for their speedy reading.
If you want to mount the WD Red Plus 2TB in the device of your choice, you need a 3.5" slot. All data transfer takes place via the SATA III interface with a standard speed of 6 Gbit/s. The technology ranks among the most popular HDD data transfer solutions available and delivers a throughput of 600 MB/s.
