================= spec =================
Features of the new WD Scorpio Blue 7 mm hard drives include:
        • Low power consumption：
           Advanced power management features and algorithms optimize the way the drive seeks data,
           which significantly improves power consumption.
        • Shock Tolerance：
           WD's ShockGuard technology, now increased to a best-in-market 400Gs shock specification,
           protects the drive mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks.
        • Cool and quiet - In a notebook drive, silence is golden.
           WD's exclusive WhisperDrive technology enables quiet performance.
        • Reliable：
           WD's SecurePark parks the recording heads off the disk surface during spin up,
           spin down, and when the drive is off.
           This ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface
           resulting in improved long term reliability due to less head wear,
           and improved non-operational shock tolerance.
        • Compatibility Tested：
           WD performs tests on hundreds of systems and a multitude of platforms in its FIT Lab
           and Mobile Compatibility Lab to give customers confidence that drives will work in specific systems.

5mm....看來在過一段時間 3.5吋的也可以做得更薄了

效能呢...希望不會太悲劇,不然Ultrabook還是用SSD好了

用過ssd 就回不去了
