Pipeline HD features drive

Delivers 24x7 reliability

With an AFR of 0.55%, Pipeline HD® hard drives feature industry-leading reliability for always-on devices such as DVRs and home cinema systems.

Key to the Pipeline HD drive's remarkable reliability is the reduced heat output enabled by its low power consumption. Pipeline HD hard drives feature:

  • The industry's lowest overall power consumption profile
  • Forty per cent less heat production than comparable drives during the same duty cycle

And the Pipeline HD drive can take the heat in the most demanding 24×7 devices. This hard drive improves system reliability with a capability of operating at temperatures of up to 75°C.
