Features

Get Storage Capacity Up to 6 TB
Boost your PC storage with WD Blue drives, the brand designed just for desktop and all-in-one PCs. The WD Blue family now delivers data storage capacities up to 6 TB.

Which capacity is right for you?
- Entry Level: Up to 1 TB
- Mainstream: 2 TB to 4 TB
- Best Upgrade: 5 TB+
Models up to 1 TB can be both 5400-RPM & 7200-RPM Class. Models that are 2 TB and above are 5400-RPM.
Improve PC Performance

Pair a larger capacity drive with an SSD to give your desktop a performance and storage boost. The SSD maximizes speed of data access, while the WD Blue drive stores up to 6 TB of movies, games, files, applications and more.
Upgrade and Backup with Ease

WD hard drives come with free access to WD Acronis True Image. Our downloadable software quickly copies all your existing data to your new drive – without reinstalling your operating system. Backup and restore functions make it easy to save and retrieve your personal data.
Plan for the Future

With better technology comes bigger storage needs. Cameras that record ultra-high definition video at 4K resolution and 30 frames per second require a ton of storage. Handling all that media is a snap with our 6 TB drive.
What it holds

WD offers capacities of up to 6 TB per hard drive, which allows you to hold up to 1,200,000 photos, 461 hours of video or 1,5000,000 songs.*

_{*Examples of the number of photos, songs, videos and any other files that can be stored on a hard drive are provided for illustrative purposes only. Your results will vary based on file size and format, settings, features, software and other factors. 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, megabit per second (Mb/s) = one million bits per second, and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second.}
