WD Blue ultra-slim 2.5-inch, 5 mm hard drive. MSRP: s$119.

WD designed the new WD Blue and WD Black 5 mm drives to enable new levels of device portability.
The new drives are aimed to increase internal storage capacity while enabling it to fit into smaller device slots
In addition, the slimmer and more portable the device, the more vulnerable the hard drive is to user-induced stress.
To battle this, WD has designed key enablers to the 5 mm form factor:
