The increased need for enterprise storage plus tremendous pressure on IT managers, who must accommodate ever-grater volume with ever-tighter budgets, creates a need for reliable, low-cost solutions. Enter Serial ATA (SATA), a new interface that meets all the demands of enterprise environment - reliability, performance, and reduced cost. Serial ATA is poised to replace Parallel SCSI in the mid-range but only if there's a drive that can meet the performance and reliability requirements of that market. That drive is WD Raptor. The WD Raptor is a new class of hard drive that combines 10,000 RPM rotational speed with the Serial ATA interface to match SCSI performance and reliability and provide simplified connectivity, all at significantly less cost that Parallel SCSI drives.
