Is this the correct cable to use with this drive?: WD RE 4 TB Enterprise Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA III, 64 MB Cache - WD4000FYYZ

Yes, "SATA III" as you listed in the question - is the indicator that this is the right cable
1412703
In a word, yes. Just remember your setup to see if the 90 degree angle will fit.

nope, your drive should be fine. These used to be shown as being OEM (NOT Retail packaging) shipped drives, but I don't see that now. So, if you were expecting a retail box, then return it; otherwise there are no differences.

It's a standard SATA connector on a SATA III cable. If the drive has a SATA plug, then probably. A lot will depend on how the drive and mobo is mounted in the case. Sometimes you need 90 degree connectors and other times straight. Cable length is usually not an issue.

It should be - I would be very surprised it wasn't! This is a standard enclosure for 3.5" SATA disk drives, and the WD drive you are asking about is a standard 3.5" SATA disk drive. Any modern 3.5" SATA drive should be fine with this enclosure.

You need a standard SATA cable, not E-SATA cable up to level 3.0. you only need to order one that's long enough for your installation.

I have 4 Western Digital Red 3TB drives in mine. It has been running non-stop since I bought it. The best investment I've made in computer hardware in long time. Segate and Western digital will both work in it. Not sure if differnt size drives will work though.

From WD FAQ: We can only guarantee drive capacity. We cannot guarantee a particular internal hard drive model, data interface, rotational speed, or cache size in the external hard drive enclosure. With the exception of Thunderbolt, eSATA and USB 3.0 external hard drives, USB 2.0 and Firewire 400/800 have yet to approach the transfer rates of the internal hard drives we use in our external enclosures

If you're referring to WD 4TB My Book Desktop External Hard Drive - USB 3.0 - WDBFJK0040HBK-NESN then the answer is yes, it will work

I used it as an external drive. Even if you can take the HD out, you still need a sata connecting cable ($8.66 for 2). It has a USB-3 cable which is faster than the conventional USB-2. I wonder why you would pay the price of an external drive and use it as an internal drive, which usually costs less for the same capacity. I bought a WD 4 TB internal drive as D:

I believe your hard drive is 2.5 inch. Check the specification of the cable wether it is a ZIF type or PATA/etc.

the Seagate is a SATA6GB/S and your Western Digital wd2500aajs 75b4ao is a SATA3GB/S which is slower data transfer rate. It will work, as I am using mine on SATA3GB/S port and the Seagate is backward compatible I checked with Seagate before I purchased my drive. Hopes this helps.

I used the following: WD Blue 1 TB Desktop Hard Drive: 3.5 Inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache - WD10EZEX by Western Digital. It was found at the bottom of the description of the cameral where you find "People also purchase these items also".

I would guess that it doesn't matter. I've installed countless hard drives in various devices and I've never had one not work due to the RPMs being to high or low. I can confirm that 7200 RPM drives work in it.

Yes, it works with 4TB, Seagate Desktop Solid State Hybrid Drive - 4 TB, 8 GB Flash, 3.5 in, SATA-600, Buffer 64 MB, Internal - ST4000DX001, so should work with WD drive.

This should be compatible with it. Any 2.5 HDDs I have used have been compatible with it.

I do not use the WD 4TB RE HDD --- I do use the WD 2TB RE HDD. The 2TB drive I use is connected via a SATA connection. I'm not sure I understand the question regarding the SATA connection on the drive. If you are trying to use the HDD with a port multiplier it may be that the size (storage capacity) of the HDD is limited by the port multiplier. Since the WD RE drives are designed to be used in servers I doubt that there would be a problem using the HDD with a port multiplier, assuming that the port multiplier is not limited to a smaller capacity drive.

It is compatible with SATA III. However you will never reach those speeds with conventional hard drives.
