00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:07.600
well I'm at it again up to my old tricks I am unboxing an oem hard drive but I

00:00:05.359 --> 00:00:12.200
have a good reason for it this time I promise you I do so I'm going to zoom in

00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:17.080
and tell you a little bit about this particular Drive first of all it is a

00:00:14.440 --> 00:00:20.960
Western Digital 1 tbte drive and you know I can I can see you right now

00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:24.599
saying whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa back up we've seen this before but no this is

00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:29.560
something new okay so I'm going to zoom back in give you a closer look okay so

00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:33.559
this is part of their black series and I okay seen this before but the special

00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:40.079
thing about this particular Drive is that it is SATA 3 or SATA 6 gabit per

00:00:37.559 --> 00:00:44.239
second compatible so that means that if you have one of the newer boards

00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:48.840
particularly ASUS and Gigabyte have released a lot of SATA 3 ready boards

00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:52.440
then you can actually hook this up to your SATA 3 controller now whether or

00:00:51.199 --> 00:00:57.520
not you're going to see a huge performance Impact versus the older

00:00:54.440 --> 00:01:00.480
Western Digital one TB black drives is

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:06.520
um not as clear but you should see higher burst speeds okay and you will

00:01:03.480 --> 00:01:08.200
also be able to run it on that

00:01:06.520 --> 00:01:11.960
controller now something else that they've added with this particular Drive

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:17.119
is that it has a 64 Meg cache now I'm not sure if you're going to be able to read that but right about there it says

00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:23.439
it has a 64 Meg cache and most of the other blacks have a 32 Meg cache so I

00:01:20.600 --> 00:01:28.240
have unbagged this drive I'm going to dump out the do not eat do not eat this

00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:34.560
wow it's even in a bunch of different languages on this one that's very um

00:01:31.479 --> 00:01:36.759
health conscious of Western Digital to

00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:39.640
take care of that okay so why don't we start with the front of the drive this

00:01:38.320 --> 00:01:43.159
is the front of the drive this is a standard 3 and 1/2 in OEM drive it

00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:47.759
doesn't include any mounting screws or cables but what it does have is holes to

00:01:45.360 --> 00:01:52.040
put mounting screws so you can put 1 2 3 here 1 two 3 here and that is how you

00:01:49.960 --> 00:01:57.960
will Mount the drive or you can mount it with 1 2 3 4 at the bottom at the back

00:01:55.600 --> 00:02:02.719
of the drive you will find oh it seems my cats want to help me unbox here look

00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:08.399
do you like this yeah it's a hard drive okay why

00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:13.480
don't you go on the floor thank you okay so at the back you will find and I would

00:02:10.119 --> 00:02:16.000
normally say SATA power and SATA 2 Data

00:02:13.480 --> 00:02:19.519
but today I will say SATA 3 data so there you go that is the biggest

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:23.000
difference between this and every other one tab Drive released by Western

00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:27.800
Digital to date thank you for checking out my unboxing of the WD 1 tab black
