Take advantage of low operating temperatures, low noise and a host of eco-friendly features, along with massive storage capacity, with the new 4Tb WD Green hard drives from distributor Drive Control Corporation (DCC).
These cool, quiet drives use WD GreenPower technology to reduce operating temperatures, offering increased reliability and low acoustics, perfect for ensuring ultra-quiet running PCs and external drives.
“Featuring best in class power management technology for significant power savings and solid performance, these highly reliable drives are perfect for use wherever energy efficiency is desired along with reduced power consumption and low operating temperatures.
“This makes them ideal for all desktop requirements as well as for use in external drives. Other earth-friendly features also make these drives the right choice for organisations looking to reduce their carbon footprint,” says Farhad Alli, WD Product Specialist at DCC.
WD Green drives are designed and manufactured with lead-free, conflict-free and halogen-free materials, reducing the impact of these drives on the planet. Along with being lead-free and halogen-free, the WD Green drives are also Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) compliant and are built using fewer rare earth minerals.
WD Green drives feature IntelliSeek technology, which calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise and vibration. No Touch Ramp Load technology means that the recording head never touches the disk media, which ensures significantly less wear to the recording head and media as well as better protection of the drive when on the move or in transit.
WD Green drives are compatible with Acronis True Image WD Edition Software. Acronis True Image WD Edition Software helps you to completely clone your current system drive onto your new WD hard drive.
Cloning makes an exact copy of your old system drive on your new WD hard drive, including the operating system (OS), applications, data, preferences, and email settings. Everything will be present and operate exactly as it did on the old hard drive. Acronis True Image WD Edition now supports WD Advanced Format Drives and ensures that all partitions are optimally aligned making the upgrading process that much easier.
“With a host of green features that do not compromise on performance, along with intelligent technology to not only reduce power consumption but increase the reliability of the drive, and with the new 4Tb capacity, WD Green drives ensure that users can store all of their data with ease, while reducing environmental impact,” Alli concludes.
The WD Green 4Tb drive is now available from DCC for an RRP of R2 259.00 including VAT.
