What this drive is
The Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EACS is a 1TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 7200RPM with a 16MB cache. It connects via a SATA 3Gb/s interface and is supplied as a bare drive in new condition.
Who it suits and who it does not
This drive suits desktop builders who need a terabyte of storage on a standard SATA connection and value lower power draw from automatic head unloading during idle. It is not for systems that require a 6Gb/s SATA link, a larger cache, or a 2.5-inch form factor.
The spec that decides fit
The SATA 3Gb/s interface is the single specification that determines whether this drive will work at its rated speed in your system; verify your motherboard or controller supports this generation before purchase.

Questions about this item
Is the 1TB capacity the right choice for a desktop needing bulk storage?
The 1TB Caviar Green provides ample space for documents, media and backups in a standard 3.5-inch desktop bay.
What does the 7200RPM speed actually deliver in daily use?
The 7200RPM spindle gives solid throughput for file transfers and application loading while the drive unloads heads during idle to cut power draw.
How does the SATA 3Gb/s interface limit performance?
The 3Gb/s SATA link caps the maximum burst rate, so sustained reads and writes will not exceed that ceiling even if the platters could spin faster.
