Product Features

Highest capacity for audio/video

storage

WD AV-GP SATA drives now offer

unrivaled storage capacity up to

3 TB – perfect for today’s storage

intensive applications.

24x7 reliability

These drives are designed to

last in high temperature always-

on streaming digital audio/video

environments such as PVR/DVR,

IPTV, and video surveillance systems.

Compatible

Tested for compatibility in a broad

range of AV products including

set top boxes, DVR/PVR, and

mainstream video surveillance

systems. For drives with greater than

2.19 TB capacity, compatibility is

selective to PVRs and surveillance

systems that are compatible with

hard drives exceeding 2.19 TB. For

more information on large capacity

drive compatibility, go to

Reduced power consumption

WD AV-GP drives consume less

power by up to 40 percent compared

to 7200 RPM hard drives. Lower

power means less heat and greater

reliability.

Quiet

Noise levels have been minimized to

less than one sone* - virtually below

the threshold of human hearing.

SilkStream

Optimized for smooth, continuous

digital video playback of up to twelve

simultaneous HD streams. SilkStream

is compatible with the ATA streaming

command set so CE customers can

use standard streaming management

and error recovery options.

IntelliSeek

™

Calculates optimum seek speeds to

lower power consumption, noise, and

vibration.

IntelliPower

™

A ne-tuned balance of spin

speed, transfer rate, and caching

algorithms designed to deliver both

signicant power savings and solid

performance.

NoTouch

™

ramp load technology

The recording head never touches

the disk media ensuring signicantly

less wear to the recording head

and media as well as better drive

protection in transit.

Preemptive Wear Leveling (PWL)

The drive arm frequently sweeps

across the disk to reduce uneven

wear on the drive surface common to

audio video streaming applications.

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

efcient media format that enables

increased areal densities.

(EURS/EURX/EUCX/AURS/AUDX

models only)

1 million hours MTBF

Best-in-class reliability for mainstream

3.5-inch form-factor AV storage.**

* A sone is a subjective unit of loudness as perceived by a person

with normal hearing.

** Based upon dual tuner system operating in typical 30°C air ambient

environment.
