WD Blue 10TB Desktop Hard Drive (WD100EAGZ) – SATA 6Gb/s, 7200 RPM, 512MB Cache, CMR

The WD Blue 10TB (WD100EAGZ) is a 3.5-inch internal desktop hard drive for PC builders, gamers and home users who need affordable bulk storage. With 7200 RPM operation, a 512MB cache and CMR recording, it handles game libraries, media collections and backups reliably.

Add terabytes to your desktop without slowing it down.

Why Your SSD Shouldn’t Store Everything

Most modern PCs boot from a fast SSD, but SSD capacity is expensive per terabyte. Games, photo libraries, video projects and backups fill it quickly, forcing constant deleting and juggling.

The WD Blue 10TB solves this by adding 10TB of affordable storage. Keep your OS and active apps on the SSD and move large libraries to the hard drive. Its 7200 RPM spindle keeps load times reasonable for games and media.

CMR Recording for Steady Transfers

CMR keeps write speeds consistent when copying large files, and the 512MB cache smooths everyday reads and writes.

Easy Upgrade for Any Desktop

The standard 3.5-inch form factor and SATA connection fit nearly every desktop case and motherboard, and Acronis True Image for Western Digital helps you clone or back up your system.
