As hard drive capacities increase, the power required to run those drives increases as well. The 500GB WD Caviar GP makes it possible for energy-conscious customers to build systems with higher capacities and the right balance of system performance, ensured reliability, and energy conservation.

By adjusting the rotational speed, using bigger data buffers, parking the drive's head, and optimizing how the drive seeks and caches data, WD has reduced power consumption by up to 38 percent. IntelliPower technology offers a fine-tuned balance of spin speed, transfer rate and cache size designed to deliver both significant power savings and solid performance. IntelliSeek technology calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption, noise and vibration.
