Western Digital AV was a hard drive family created by Western Digital. It was a variant of Caviar SE and Blue, designed for consumer electronics DVRs. It competed with various Hitachi CinemaStar 7K and Samsung Spinpoint -CE suffix families, as well as Seagate DB35. It was replaced by the AV-GP line, originally a 5,400 RPM alternative to this family.
History
The AV family was originally released in 2007, along with the Sequoia and Tornado family versions of Caviar. The AV family were binned versions of Caviar, Caviar SE and later Blue drives. 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.
