Description and Features
1.0DESCRIPTIONAND FEATURES
1.1General Description
WD Purple Surveillance Storage is built for 24/7 always-on surveillance in highdefinition security systems that utilize higher hard drive bay counts. Exclusive
AllFrame 4K™ technology works with ATA streaming to reduce error pixelation and
video interruptions that occur when desktop hard drives are incorrectly used as
storage in security systems.
1.2Product Features
Serial ATA (SATA) — Serial ATA (SATA) is the industry standard bus interface for
hard drives. It offers many advantages including increased transfer rate, improved
signal integrity, enhanced data protection, and hot plug support.
AllFrame 4K™ Technology — All WD Purple™ drives are equipped with AllFrame
4K™ technology, which improves ATA streaming to help reduce frame loss,
improve overall video playback, and increase the number of hard drive bays
supported within a NVR. Help make your surveillance solution future-ready
knowing that WD Purple™ drives are ready for ultra high definition cameras.
Premium Protection — Designed with tarnish-resistant components, this WD
Purple drive offers premium protection in harsh environments where surveillance
systems may be installed.
IntelliSeek™ — Calculates optimum seek speeds to lower power consumption,
noise, and vibration.
Dynamic Fly Height Control — Designed to compensate for head/media
separation changes due to temperature and altitude. This feature adds video
quality margins across temperature and altitude changes.
NoTouch™ Ramp Load Technology — The recording head never touches the disk
media ensuring significantly less wear to the recording head and media as well as
better drive protection in transit.
Dual Actuator Technology — A head positioning system with dual-stage
actuators that improves positioning accuracy over the data track(s). The primary
stage provides course displacement; the secondary stage uses piezoelectric
motion to fine tune the head positioning to a higher degree of precision.
Advanced Format (AF) — Technology adopted by Western Digital and other
drive manufacturers as one of multiple ways to continue growing hard drive
capacities. AF is a more efficient media format that enables increased areal
densities.
Native Command Queuing (NCQ) — Performance of a random I/O workload can
be improved through intelligent re-ordering of the I/O requests so they read/
write to and from the nearest available sectors and minimize the need for
additional disk revolutions or head actuator movement. This improvement can be
achieved though Native Command Queuing (NCQ), which is supported by these
hard drives.

Description and Features
Pre-emptive Wear Leveling (PWL) — This Western Digital feature provides a
solution for protecting the recording media against mechanical wear. In cases
where the drive is so busy with incoming commands that it is forced to stay in a
same cylinder position for a long time, the PWL control engine initiates forced
seeks so that disk lubricant maintains an even distribution and does not become
depleted. This feature ensures reliability for applications that perform a high
incidence of read/write operations at the same physical location on the disk.
S.M.A.R.T. Command Transport (SCT) — The SCT Command Transport feature set
provides a method for a host to send commands and data to a device and for a
device to send data and status to a host using log pages.
World Wide Name (WWN) — The World Wide Name (WWN) defined in ATA/
ATAPI-7 is a modification of the IEEE extended unique identifier 64 bit standard
(EUI-64) and is comprised of three major components: naming authority,
organizationally unique identifier (OUI) and serial number. Western Digital’s OUI is
0014EEh.
Reliability Features Set-Data Lifeguard™ — Representing Western Digital's
ongoing commitment to data protection, Data Lifeguard includes features that
enhance the drives ability to prevent data loss. Data Lifeguard data protection
utilities include thermal management, an environmental protection system, and
embedded error detection and repair features that automatically detect, isolate,
and repair problem areas that may develop over the extended use of the hard
drive. With these enhanced data reliability features, the drive can perform more
accurate monitoring, error repair, and deliver exceptional data security.
Hot Plug Support — SATA supports hot plugging (also known as “hot swapping”),
the ability to swap out a failed hard drive without having to power down the
system or reboot. This capability contributes to both data availability and
serviceability without any associated downtime, making it a critical feature for
extending SATA into enterprise applications.
Active LED Status — The drive supports external LED requirements. It provides an
activity LED output which is ON during command execution and OFF otherwise.
Fluid Dynamic Bearings (FDB) — Bearing design that incorporates a layer of high-
viscosity lubricant instead of ball bearings in the hard drive spindle motor. FDB
designs provide increased non-operational shock resistance, speed control, and
improved acoustics.
Staggered Spin-Up — A feature that allows the system to control whether the
drive will spin up immediately or wait until the interface is fully ready (available for
specific OEM configurations).
Power Management — The drive supports the ATA and SATA power management
command set, allowing the host to reduce the power consumption of the drive
by issuing a variety of power management commands.
Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) — S.M.A.R.T.
enables a drive’s internal status to be monitored through diagnostic commands at
the host level and during offline activities. S.M.A.R.T. devices employ data analysis
algorithms that are used to predict the likelihood of some near-term degradation
or fault conditions. When used with a S.M.A.R.T. application, the drive can alert
the host system of a negative reliability status condition. The host system can
then warn the user of the impending risk of data loss and recommend an
appropriate action.
- 9 -
Description and Features
ATA Security — The drive supports the ATA Security Mode Feature set. The ATA
Security Mode feature set allows the user to create a device lock password that
prevents unauthorized hard disk access even if the drive is removed from the host
computer. The correct password must be supplied to the hard drive in order to
access user data. Both the User and Master Password features are supported,
along with the High and Maximum security modes. The Master Password Revision
code is also supported. This feature varies by drive configuration and may not be
available on all configurations.

2.5.6Atmospheric Condition
Environments that contain elevated levels of corrosives (e.g., hydrogen sulfide, sulfur
oxides, or hydrochloric acid, sulfurous gases, chlorine and nitric oxide) should be
avoided and ideally kept below G2 severity level defined in ISA–71.04–1985. Care must
be taken to avoid using any compound/material in a way that creates an elevated
level of corrosive materials in the atmosphere surrounding the disk drive. Vulcanized
rubber is an example of a material which may contain corrosive compound/materials.
Care must also be taken to avoid the use of any organometallic (e.g., organosilicones
or organotins) compound/material in a way that creates elevated vapor levels of
these compounds/materials in the atmosphere surrounding the disk drive.
Siliconebased Thermal Interface Materials (TIM), silicone-based tapes, caulking/RTV
pastes, silicone rubbers and silicone oil lubricants are examples of materials which
may create elevated vapor levels of organometallic compound/materials.
Use of the disk drive in these abnormal or other chemically-challenging environments
is not recommended and increases the risk for failure. If any of these materials are
considered in system design, it is recommended to consult with Western Digital
Corporation.

WD complies with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2011/
65/EU of the European Parliament, which is effective in the EU beginning July 8, 2011.
RoHS aims to protect human health and the environment by restricting the use of
certain hazardous substances in new equipment, and consists of restrictions on lead,
mercury, cadmium, and other substances.
2.6Reliability Specification and Characteristics
The Mean Time between Failure (MTBF) calculations assumes operation at nominal
voltages, a base casting temperature of 40°C, and the workload usage of a typical
surveillance environment. Workload is defined as the number of bytes transferred by
the user to/from the drive. If the system(s) that the drive is installed in are not
capable of meeting the characteristics listed below, please use a WD drive that
matches your system(s)' capability. Operating drives outside any of the reliability
characteristics below will result in a higher AFR.
