It is built with enterprise-class mechanics and packs 300GB of storage
capacity into a 2.5-inch enterprise form factor. It is enclosed in the IcePack,
a 3.5-inch mounting frame with a built-in heat sink, a customization that fits
the drive into a standard 3.5-inch system bay and keeps the drive cool when
installed in a high-performance desktop chassis.
“Demand for ever-higher PC performance continues to increase and WD is the
leader in this category with the WD Raptor. We created WD VelociRaptor hard
drives to lead PC enthusiasts into the next era of PC and Mac storage
