Other Hard Disk Features
Standard HDDs are notable for their construction. Inside the drive there is a mechanism with moving platters, complete with disk read and write heads. These moving parts can be damaged by a shock or impact, but this design delivers a great combo of a low price and great storage capacity. The important parameter that determines the speed of a HDD is the number of revolutions per minute (RPM). With the WD Red Pro 16TB, you get 7200 rev/min RPM. This should delight the more demanding users, for example video editors, graphic artists, people who play PC games, and everybody else who deal with large amounts of data. Data transmission and overall stability is also determined the embedded buffer memory known as cache. The Western Digital platter drive is equipped with a 512 MB cache that stores the last data inputs for their speedy reading.

This technology is one of the most popular HDD data transfer options available and delivers a speed of 600 MB/s.
