Professional solutions

Designed specifically with SMB customers in mind, the WD Red family has expanded with the addition of WD Red Pro, which is available

for the 8 to 16 bay medium to large-scale NAS environments. With capacities from 2 to 4 TB, WD Red Pro carries a 5-year limited warranty and was engineered to handle the increased workloads from your business.

3D Active Balance™ Plus

Our enhanced dual-plane balance control technology significantly improves the overall drive performance and reliability. Hard drives that are not properly balanced may cause excessive vibration and noise in a multi-drive system, reduce the hard drive life span, and degrade the performance over time. (EFRX models only)

Enhanced reliability

Since your NAS system is always on, a highly reliable drive is essential. With a 35% MTBF improvement over standard drives, the WD Red drive with NASware 3.0 is designed for the 24x7 environment.

Lower operating temperatures

Innovative technology reduces power consumption and lowers the operating temperature, resulting in a more reliable and affordable solution for always on NAS environments.

Longer warranty coverage

The WD Red drive is backed by a 3-year limited warranty for greater peace of mind.
