The need for high capacity hard drives has increased lately and in the present market, there are two 2TB hard disk drives, one from Seagate and the other one from Western Digital. Both the hard disk drives operate at lower speeds and save power. The green models operate at around 4-5W which is half the normal power consumption of hard drives.
