best-in-class vibration tolerance, these drives are the ultimate in Enterprise
SATA storage.

Product Benefits

Massive capacity

- WD RE3 Enterprise SATA drives are available in capacities up to 1 TB.

Dual processor

- Twice the processing power delivers best-in-class performance for

demanding Enterprise applications.

RAFF™

- Our fourth generation RAFF technology includes sophisticated electronics to

monitor the drive and correct both linear and rotational vibration for up to a 60% performance
improvement in high vibration environments over the previous generation of drives.

IntelliSeek™

- Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise, and

vibration in active seek modes without degrading performance.

StableTrac™

- The motor shaft is secured at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration

and stabilize platters for accurate tracking during read and write operations. (750 GB and
above)

Multi-axis shock sensor

- Automatically detects the subtlest shock events and

compensates to protect the data.

RAID-specific, time-limited error recovery (TLER)

- Prevents drive fallout caused by the

extended hard drive error-recovery processes common to desktop drives.

Third generation dynamic fly height

- Each read-write head’s fly height is adjusted in real

time for optimum reliability.

Thermal extended burn-in test

- Each drive is put through extended burn-in testing with

thermal cycling to ensure reliable operation.

NoTouch™ ramp load technology

- The recording head never touches the disk media

ensuring significantly less wear to the recording head and media as well as better drive
protection in transit.

Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR)

- WD RE3 Enterprise SATA drives utilize PMR

technology to achieve even greater areal density, reliability, and design margin.

5-year limited warranty

Applications

Ideal for servers, storage arrays, video surveillance, and other demanding applications.
