One of the most affordable 3.5″ internal hard drives from the 2010 WD Caviar Blue line of consumer HDDs. It is positioned as a product of the basic price category, intended for use as part of multi-purpose home and office configurations of the most affordable cost. A capacity of 500 GB will be enough to store working projects files and small volumes of SD/HD/UHD media content. Can be used as the sole system drive of a PC or paired with a more powerful SSD drive.
In the latter case, it can be used as part of entry-level workstations, the operation of which does not involve a serious load on the data storage subsystem. The WD Caviar Blue WD5000AAKX shows acceptable sequential read/write speed (up to 140 Mbps according to CrystalDiskMark) and has a small buffer cache of 16 MB. Thanks to the high rotation speed of 7200 rpm, it provides low latency data access. Demonstrates noticeable power consumption (6.8 W in active mode), requires low-intensity airflow to maintain a comfortable thermal regime. Designed to connect to a SATA3 port, which is backward compatible with the first and second generations of this interface.

It has been serving for more than 9 years, and it works with a bang, the info disk shows 100% in the crystal, I don’t know if it can be trusted, but the disk really works well Too durable for the price No  ينميويز يترنيميم: use WD WD5000AAKS more than year |
Now, there are two dead people at home, one was born on January 03, 2010, the other on October 14, 2010. At work, we bought 250 cars, all with these screws, now I’m uploading images, soon I’ll write, write and write. A beautiful piece of paper is pasted. Dying.  Asus: use WD WD5000AAKX more than year |
