The WD8002FZWX is Western Digital's 8TB Black desktop hard drive: a 3.5-inch, 7200 RPM SATA 6Gb/s drive with 128MB of cache, built for gaming PCs and large local storage. It is a mechanical drive, so it suits game libraries, media and backups rather than boot drives. Against 5400 RPM drives of the same capacity it reads and writes faster; against SSDs it is far slower but holds much more per bay. Owners of the Black line generally report solid sustained speed and long service, with noise and heat as the usual trade-offs.
