Overview


WD Scorpio Blue 2.5-inch SATA hard drives deliver massive 1 TB capacity paired with ultra-quiet operation and low power consumption, making them the ideal drive for everyday notebook computing. These drives are built to the standard 9.5 mm height 2.5-inch form factor utilizing 500 GB/disk technology. In addition, these hard drives are designed with ruggedness, reliability, and data-protection features that actively watch over your valuable data.

Designed for various applications.
WD Scorpio Blue has a portfolio of drives to satisfy all your portable computing needs. These drives are available in multiple z-heights including the 9.5 mm industry standard, 7 mm for use in thin notebooks and compatible with mainstream systems, and 12.5 mm primarily for external enclosures.
Rugged.
WD's ShockGuard technology protects the drive mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks.
Advanced Format (AF).
Technology adopted by WD and other drive manufacturers to increase media format efficiencies, thus enabling larger drive capacities. (PVT models only)
Reliable.
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.
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 our customers confidence that our drives will work in their systems.
Ideal for:
Portable digital devices of all kinds including notebook computers, external storage, and digital media players.
