WD Purple 1TB Surveillance Hard Drive
Western Digital Have designed the WD Purple 1TB Surveillance Hard Drive to meet the challenges of 24×7 video surveillance recording. They engineered this drive specifically for surveillance to help withstand the elevated heat fluctuations and equipment vibrations within NVR environments. An average desktop drive is built to run for only short intervals, not the harsh 24/7 always-on environment of a high-definition surveillance system. Comparatively, with WD Purple drives, you get reliable, surveillance-class storage that’s tested for compatibility in a wide range of security systems. Moreover, Exclusive AllFrame™ technology helps reduce frame loss and improve overall video playback.
Additionally, WD Purple drives feature a workload rating of up to 180TB/year2 – up to three times that of desktop drives to handle the unique demands of mainstream video surveillance DVR and NVR systems.
