Western Digital has just released a new affordable hard drive for home users called the Cavier Green Drive. The Cavier Green Drive interacts with your PC through a speedy SATA connection, which gives this huge hard drive a 8ms search time. Eight milli-seconds is really good for a huge two tera-byte hard drive, with the 3.5" standard size. I have eighty giga-byte 10,000RPM hard drives with worse seek time than that.

So why is the new hard-drive by Western Digital 'Green'? The Cavier Green Drive takes advantage of it's 32mb onboard cache by using their unique special power management algorithm. The special power management algorithm has made this new hard-drive the most power efficient one on the market today according to the power efficieny ladders. WD claims the Cavier Green Drive uses a mere 7 watts during read/write and only 5 watts when idle.
