WD Scorpio Blue Mobile Hard Drives - Big Capacity for Portable Computing.
With SATA interface, WD Scorpio Blue drives offer high-performance, low power consumption and cool operation, perfect for notebooks and other portable devices. Pick the drive that suits your needs with the confidence in knowing that all WD Scorpio Blue drives are built to the highest standards of quality and reliability.
Massive Capacity
Storage capacity for 2.5-inch form factor drives has arrived at a realm once thought to be impossible – up to 1 TB for mobile storage.* Whether they are in an external drive or a notebook computer, WD Scorpio Blue drives continue to offer the highest capacity for spacehungry operating systems with plenty of room left over for photos, music, and video.
Quiet
In a notebook drive, silence is golden. WD’s exclusive WhisperDrive combines state-of-the-art seeking algorithms to yield one of the quietest 2.5-inch hard drives on the market. These algorithms also optimize the way a drive seeks for data, which significantly improves power consumption. So now silence (and longer battery life) is golden.
Reliable and rugged
WD's ShockGuard technology protects the drive mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks. WD’s SecurePark™ parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up, spin down, and when the drive is off. This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in improved long term reliability due to less head wear, and improved non-operational shock tolerance.
Fast and efficient
Ultra-fast 3 Gb/s SATA interface speed yields performance fit for demanding mobile applications.
Tested for Compatibility:
We perform tests on hundreds of systems and a multitude of platforms in our FIT Lab and Mobile Compatibility Lab to give WD customers confidence that our drives will work in their systems.
Advanced Format (AF):
Technology being adopted by WD and other drive manufacturers as one of multiple ways to continue growing hard drive capacities. AF is
a more efficient media format that enables increased areal densities.(PVT models only)

1 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, and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second. Effective maximum SATA 3 Gb/s transfer rate calculated according to the Serial ATA specification published by the SATA-IO
organization as of the date of this specification sheet. Visit www.sata-io.org for details.
