Western Digital's 2.5-inch line of hard drives are models designed for use in laptops and small form factor desktops. These Red series drives offer a combination of lower power and low noise features along with optimization for 24/7 operation and longevity. They are not the fastest drives, but provide the most capacity available from WD in a compact footprint.
William George (Marketing Project Manager) Says:
I wouldn't recommend using one of these as a boot drive, due to their relatively slow speed, but they are great for added storage capacity in a laptop or other computer where 2.5" drives are required. Some small network attached storage boxes use this size of drive, for example.
