Product Features
The right drive for the right job
WD Purple™ drives have been engineered
specifically for surveillance, so they’re able
to withstand the extreme heat fluctuations
and equipment vibrations within a NVR
environment. 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. A
disruption to a drive could result in a failure
that impacts multiple users, your security
archive, or even the entire system. With
WD Purple™, you get reliable, surveillanceclass storage that’s tested for compatibility
in a wide-range of security systems.
Industry-leading storage.
Surveillance you can trust.
WD is a worldwide leader in the hard drive
industry. With WD Purple™ surveillance
storage, you have a drive engineered for
high temperature, always-on surveillance
systems so you can rely on quality
video playback when you need it most.
Whether you’re protecting loved ones or
monitoring your business, WD Purple™
offers performance you can trust.
FORM FACTOR
3.5-inch
Wide compatibility. Seamless
integration.
WD Purple™ hard drives are built with
compatibility in mind, so you can quickly
and seamlessly add capacity to your
surveillance system. With a wide range of
industry-leading enclosures and chipsets
supported, you’re sure to find the DVR
configuration that’s right for you.**
**Not sure what drive is best for your
system? Use our compatibility tool to find
the perfect storage for your DVR or NVR.
Expand your view to 64
Each WD Purple™ drive is optimized to
support up to 64 cameras. With so many
options, you have the flexibility to upgrade
or expand your security system in the
future
Trust your view with AllFrame 4K™
Missed frames and lost footage could be a
serious problem when video surveillance
needs to be retrieved. All WD Purple™
drives are equipped with AllFrame 4K™
technology, which improves ATA streaming
to help reduce frame loss, improve overall
PERFORMANCE CLASS
5400 RPM Class
video playback, and increase the number
of hard drive bays supported within a NVR.
Features:
• Engineered specifically for surveillance
security systems.
• Three times the workload rating of our
desktop hard drives*.
• Tuned for write-intensive, low bit-rate,
high stream-count applications typical to
most surveillance applications.
• Prioritized write-operations for maximized
surveillance performance.
• TLER & ATA streaming support.
• Support for more than eight bays.***
*Workload Rate is defined as the amount
of user data transferred to or from the
hard drive. Workload Rate is annualized
(TB transferred X(8760 / recorded
power-on hours)). Workload Rate will vary
depending on your hardware and software
components and configurations.
***For capacities 4TB and higher.
CAPACITIES
500GB to 10TB
Less power. More efficient.
Low power consumption is a necessity in
a high-temperature, always-on surveillance
environment. With our exclusive
IntelliSeek™ technology, WD Purple™
drives are able to calculate optimum seek
speeds. This keeps power consumption
low so ambient noise and vibrations are at
a minimum.
Three year limited-warranty
As an industry-leading hard drive
manufacturer, WD stands behind their
surveillance storage solutions. With a
3-year limited warranty included with
every WD Purple™ drive, you can rely on
your surveillance system’s data storage
capabilities.

As used for storage capacity, one megabyte (MB) = one million bytes, one gigabyte (GB) = one billion bytes, and one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment. As used for buffer or cache, one megabyte (MB) = 1,048,576 bytes. As used for transfer rate
or interface, megabyte per second (MB/s) = one million bytes per second, and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second. Effective maximum SATA 6 Gb/s transfer rate calculated according to the Serial ATA specication published by the SATA-IO organization as of the date of this specication sheet. Visit
