WD - Blue 2TB Internal SATA Hard Drive for Desktops
- Key Specs
- Storage Drive Type: HDD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Rotational Speed: 5400 revolutions per minute (The rate at which the hard drive spins its platters. The higher the rotational speed, the faster the drive can read and write data.)
- Interface(s): SATA (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Q: What is a Wd Blue hard drive compared to Wd Black or other colors?
A: Blue is for basics, desktop computing. Nothing fancy or fast.. Black is for performance, say for gaming. Red is for NAS storage, purple is for surveillance where it's not just the storage capacity, but also the data rate is an issue because video cameras put out an awful lot of data that has to get pumped onto the drive. Gold is for servers that need very high reliability and lots of repetitive access.
A: This item has a feature of SATA lll interface. SATA III specifications provide backward compatibility to function on SATA I and SATA II ports. However, the maximum speed of the drive will be slower due to the lower speed limitations of the port.
Q: Does this storage unit work for the ps4
A: Yes you will need an extra component such as the niko extended storage housing
Q: Does this come with the SATA cable or do we have to buy it separately?
A: No. Its the drive only.
Q: Can I use this in my 2008 MacBook?
A: This particular drive does not work in any version of a MacBook.
A: Yes, 3.5.
A: OEM, plain brown box.
