The Western Digital 2TB WD2002FAEX Caviar Black SATA Hard Drive (OEM), with high-performance dual actuator technology provides an optimum storage solution for a fully-loaded PC or a maxed out gaming machine. The primary actuator offers coarse displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles and the secondary actuator uses a piezoelectric motor to fine tune the head positioning to a higher degree of accuracy.

A featured motor shaft on both ends minimizes the system-induced vibration and stabilizes platters for accurate tracking, during read and write operations. The NoTouch Ramp Load technology ensures that the recording head never touches the disk media, providing enhanced drive protection in transit. With 64 MB cache, the Caviar Black SATA Hard Drive ensures faster data transactions by reducing the time required for data transactions.

As used for storage capacity, one megabyte (MB) = one million bytes, one gigabyte (GB) = one billion bytes, and one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment. As used for buffer or cache, one megabyte (MB) = 1,048,576 bytes. As used for transfer rate or interface, megabyte per second (MB/s) = one million bytes per second, megabit per second (Mb/s) = one million bits per second, and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second.
