The last model was released in around 2012, this category of 7,200 RPM drives being made obsolete by DVRs moving towards 5,400 RPM alternatives such as WD's own AV-GP.

It was replaced by the [[Western Digital AV-GP\|AV-GP]] line, originally a 5,400 RPM alternative to this family, but surpassed its original as DVRs moved rapidly towards 5,400 RPM spindles as opposed to the less power efficient, needlessly performant 7,200 RPM class.
