Product Features

Desktop drives vs. surveillance-class storage

WD Purple surveillance-class storage has been tested to be compatible

in a wide-range of security systems. These drives are designed to replace standard desktop drives that were not designed for the harsh 24/7 always-on, high-definition surveillance environment. Desktop drives are

built to run for only short intervals and are not engineered to withstand high-temperature fluctuations and

equipment vibrations found in a typical surveillance application.

Engineered for compatibility

WD Purple surveillance hard drives are built for compatibility with industry-leading chassis and chip set manufacturers for seamless integration into your new or existing video surveillance system.

Surveillance storage for peace-of-mind

Whether you’re protecting your personal assets and loved ones or monitoring the business you

worked hard to build, you can rely on surveillance-class storage built by one of the largest hard drive manufacturers in the world.

WD Purple Surveillance Hard Drives are designed for high temperature, always-on, surveillance security systems to ensure reliability and quality video play back when you need it most. Experience the security of knowing you’re using a surveillance– class drive designed by a leader in the hard drive industry.

Optimized performance for up to 32 HD cameras

WD Purple hard drives are optimized to support up to 32 high-definition surveillance cameras, giving you the flexibility to upgrade and expand your security system in the future.

Improve performance with AllFrame™

WD Purple surveillance-class hard drives are equipped with AllFrame technology which works with ATA streaming to reduce frame loss, improve playback and increases the number of drive bays supported. AllFrame reduces video interruptions that commonly occur when desktop hard drives are incorrectly used as storage in security systems. Missed frames and lost footage is a serious problem when an event occurs and surveillance footage needs to be retrieved. WD Purple with AllFrame provides the confidence you should expect when it’s time to play back and review critical surveillance footage.

3-year limited warranty

Trust a company with the confidence to stand behind their surveillance storage products with a 3-year limited warranty.

Lower power consumption

Low power consumption is crucial in high-temperature always-on surveillance environments. With exclusive IntelliSeek™ technology, WD Purple drives calculate the optimum seek speeds which lowers power consumption, noise and

vibration that can damage and cause drives to wear out more quickly. When you invest in a premium surveillanceclass drive you worry less while enjoying the benefits over a longer period of time.

1 million hours MTBF

Best-in-class reliability for mainstream 3.5-inch form-factor surveillance storage.*

* Based on a surveillance usage of <60 TB/year transferred at 25°C ambient environment with up to 16 cameras.
