About This Product
The Western Digital Blue 4TB HDD is a 3.5-inch SATA drive operating at 5400 RPM with a 256MB cache. It offers substantial storage capacity suitable for general data archiving or bulk storage. Compared to faster 7200 RPM HDDs or SSDs in a similar price range, its performance for active applications or operating systems will be significantly slower.
Verdict
“Good for budget bulk storage; not recommended for primary drive or performance-critical tasks.”
