Western Digital has released a 250GB 2.5 inch hard drive to the market. By all appearances, it is the first manufacturer to have one on the market. The drive features 2 platters that it spins at 5400 RPM. Western Digital has also incorporated a proprietary technology that it is calling “WhisperDrive” which makes the drive one of the quietest 2.5 inch drives on the market. It is claimed this technology optimizes the seeking of the drive as well as significantly improving power consumption.

The drive is available now and retails for roughly $200.
