250 GB WD Black internal drive

This 2.5 inch WD Black hard drive provides 250 GB of storage for laptops or small-form-factor desktops. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 32 MB cache to keep everyday workloads responsive. The SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface fits standard drive bays without adapters. It suits users who need a straightforward capacity upgrade for an existing SATA system.

2.5 inch form factor and SATA connector

The 2.5 inch metal chassis slides into laptop bays or desktop brackets that accept 2.5 inch drives. A standard SATA data and power connector means no extra cables or caddies are required for most installations. The 7200 RPM spindle delivers consistent throughput for operating system and application drives. Builders working with 3.5 inch only bays will need a separate adapter bracket.

32 MB cache and OEM packaging

The 32 MB onboard cache buffers frequent read and write operations to reduce latency during multitasking. As an OEM unit the drive ships without retail packaging, mounting screws or cloning software. System integrators can install it directly into a build and apply their own imaging process. Buyers who expect a retail box, cable kit or migration utility should source those separately.
