Scorpio Blue 80 GB SATA drive
The Western Digital Scorpio Blue WD800BEVT is a 2.5 inch SATA hard drive with 80 GB capacity. It suits users upgrading an older laptop or small-form-factor desktop that needs a 3 Gb/s SATA drive. The 5400 RPM spindle and 8 MB cache deliver basic storage for office documents and light media. It is not for builders who need more storage or faster access times.
Capacity and headroom for everyday files
Eighty gigabytes holds a modest operating system, productivity applications and a few gigabytes of photos or music. The 5400 RPM speed and 8 MB buffer handle sequential reads and writes for typical office workloads. Performance runs out when loading large games, editing video or running multiple virtual machines simultaneously. It is not for users who want high throughput for heavy workloads.
Thermals noise and power in normal use
The 5400 RPM mechanism produces low acoustic output suitable for quiet environments. Power draw remains modest during typical read and write activity, generating little heat inside a laptop chassis. The drive operates within standard SATA power limits without requiring extra cooling. It is not for silent builds that demand zero moving parts.

Questions about this item
Will the WD800BEVT work with my older 3Gb/s SATA controller?
Yes, the WD800BEVT uses a 2.5" SATA 3Gb/s interface that operates with standard SATA controllers supporting that speed.
How can I verify the WD800BEVT is running at its rated 5400RPM after installation?
Use a SMART monitoring tool such as CrystalDiskInfo to confirm the drive reports 5400RPM rotational speed and an 8MB cache size.
What comes with the WD800BEVT and what must I supply separately?
The package contains the 80GB 2.5" SATA hard drive only; you must provide a SATA data cable, power connection, and mounting screws for your chassis.
