Manufactured to WD's highest standards of quality and reliability, WD Blue offers entry-level performance and capacities ideal for your computing needs. WD Blue is designed by the brand you trust, with the quality you'd expect from a proven storage solution for everyday use.
A modern classic.
WD Blue drives are designed and built with the proven technology of WD's award-winning desktop and laptop hard drives. WD Blue lays the foundation for everyday storage by delivering improved performance compared to previous generations while maintaining the quality and reliability that has characterised WD across six generations. The difference is that our colours never fade, generation after generation.
The power of choice.
WD Blue is available in a wide range of entry-level capacities, cache sizes, form factors and connections to make sure you have the drive that best fits your system. However, not all hard drives are created equal, and for applications that demand more, WD gives you the power of choice.
A reliable drive.
We've run tests across hundreds of systems, configurations and countless platforms in our FIT Lab, to give our customers confidence that our drives will work in their systems. WD Blue lets you use our drive with confidence, knowing that our storage advances, such as NoTouch ramp load technology, are proven, reliable solutions for everyday use.
The WD advantage.
WD subjects all products to extensive Functional Integrity Tests (F.I.T.) before release. These tests ensure our products meet the WD brand's highest standards of quality and reliability. WD also has a detailed knowledge base with over 1,000 helpful articles, as well as software and support utilities. Our customer support phone lines have extended hours to make sure you get help when you need it. Our toll-free lines are here to help, or you can visit the WD Support website for more information.
Easy upgrade.
Acronis True Image, available as a download from the WD Support website, lets you copy all your data to a new drive so you don't need to reinstall your operating system to enjoy all the benefits of a new drive.
Recommended use.
WD Blue hard drives are tested and recommended for use in all-in-one PCs, industrial applications, laptops, netbooks and external enclosures where capacity isn't the priority. If you need extra capacity, take a look at WD Green storage drives.
