Western Digital Computer Drive WD1600AVCS User Manual

WD AV-GP  
Power-saving Hard Drives  
WD AV-GP SATA hard drives store more hi-def audio and  
video than ever before – up to 3 TB. They are optimized with  
SilkStream technology to capture data from up to  
12 simultaneous HD video streams. And with 24x7 operation,  
low temperature, and best-in-class reliability,  
WD AV-GP hard drives are ideal for DVR/PVR and video  
surveillance applications. 3-year limited warranty.

Product Features  
Highest capacity for audio/video  
storage  
WD AV-GP SATA drives now offer  
unrivaled storage capacity up to  
3 TB – perfect for todays storage  
intensive applications.  
Reduced power consumption  
IntelliSeek™  
Calculates optimum seek speeds to  
lower power consumption, noise, and  
vibration.  
Preemptive Wear Leveling (PWL)  
WD AV-GP drives consume less  
power by up to 40 percent compared  
to 7200 RPM hard drives. Lower  
power means less heat and greater  
reliability.  
The drive arm frequently sweeps  
across the disk to reduce uneven  
wear on the drive surface common to  
audio video streaming applications.  
IntelliPower™  
Advanced Format (AF)  
A fine-tuned balance of spin  
speed, transfer rate, and caching  
algorithms designed to deliver both  
significant power savings and solid  
performance.  
Quiet  
24x7 reliability  
These drives are designed to  
last in high temperature always-  
on streaming digital audio/video  
environments such as PVR/DVR,  
IPTV, and video surveillance systems.  
Technology being adopted by WD  
and other drive manufacturers as one  
of multiple ways to continue growing  
hard drive capacities. AF is a more  
efficient media format that enables  
increased areal densities.  
Noise levels have been minimized to  
less than one sone* - virtually below  
the threshold of human hearing.  
SilkStream  
NoTouchramp load technology  
(EURS/EURX/EUCX/AURS/AUDX  
models only)  
Optimized for smooth, continuous  
digital video playback of up to twelve  
simultaneous HD streams. SilkStream  
is compatible with the ATA streaming  
command set so CE customers can  
use standard streaming management  
and error recovery options.  
The recording head never touches  
the disk media ensuring significantly  
less wear to the recording head  
and media as well as better drive  
protection in transit.  
Compatible  
Tested for compatibility in a broad  
range of AV products including  
set top boxes, DVR/PVR, and  
mainstream video surveillance  
systems. For drives with greater than  
2.19 TB capacity, compatibility is  
selective to PVRs and surveillance  
systems that are compatible with  
hard drives exceeding 2.19 TB. For  
more information on large capacity  
drive compatibility, go to  
1 million hours MTBF  
Best-in-class reliability for mainstream  
3.5-inch form-factor AV storage.**  
* A sone is a subjective unit of loudness as perceived by a person  
with normal hearing.  
** Based upon dual tuner system operating in typical 30°C air ambient  
environment.

As used for storage capacity, one megabyte (MB) = one million bytes, one gigabyte (GB) = one billion bytes, and one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment. As used for buffer or cache, one megabyte (MB) = 1,048,576 bytes. As used for transfer  
rate or interface, megabyte per second (MB/s) = one million bytes per second, and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second. Effective maximum SATA 6 Gb/s transfer rate calculated according to the Serial ATA specification published by the SATA-IO organization as of the date of this specification
