StableTrac™
Motor shaft afxed to the baseplate
and top cover stabilizes platters for
accurate tracking during read and
write operations, yielding higher
drive data throughput in harsh
shock and vibration environments.
Supporting the top cover with the
shaft also increases robustness
to pinch forces. (WD5000MPCK
