About this product
This Western Digital WD Caviar internal hard drive offers 120GB of storage capacity. It is a 3.5-inch desktop drive operating at 7200 RPM with an 8MB cache. The drive features a DMA/ATA-100 (Ultra) interface and is compatible with PC systems. It comes in a silver color and is part of the Western Digital Caviar product line.
Our take
If you're maintaining or upgrading an older PC system that uses the ATA/100 interface, this Western Digital Caviar 120GB drive could be a perfect fit. The 7200 RPM speed and 8MB cache provide decent performance for an IDE drive of its generation. While 120GB is modest by today's standards, it's suitable for an operating system and essential applications on a legacy machine. The Caviar line is generally reliable, and for specific retro computing needs, this drive offers a good blend of capacity and speed for its interface type.
