The new drives from Western Digital will have a 1 Million hours MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure). With this MTBF, they are given their "RAID Edition" title. They will come with a 3 year warranty. The drivers will be available in both S-ATA 150 and PATA forms.
With 1 million hours MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure), WD Caviar RE drives offer systems builders and storage system manufacturers high reliability in high-duty cycle applications, where around-the-clock performance and high reliability are critical. WD also built into its Caviar RE drives a Time Limited Error Recovery (TLER) feature, which helps prevent drive fallout caused by extended desktop hard drive error-recovery processes. WD Caviar RE drives carry a three-year warranty.
