WD Purple WD64PURZ 6TB 3.5" 5400RPM 256MB Cache SATA III Surveillance Internal Hard Drive

WD Purple 6TB Surveillance Hard Drive

Uncompromising Surveillance Storage

WD Purple drives are purpose-built to meet the demanding requirements of 24/7 video surveillance recording. Engineered specifically for NVR environments, these surveillance-class drives are designed to help withstand elevated heat fluctuations and equipment vibrations common in always-on security systems.

Unlike average desktop drives that are built for short, intermittent use, WD Purple is optimized for the harsh, continuous operation of high-definition surveillance. Each drive is tested for compatibility with a wide range of security systems to deliver reliable, surveillance-grade storage.

Western Digital’s exclusive AllFrame™ technology helps reduce frame loss and improve overall video recording and playback quality.

With more than a decade of experience in surveillance-grade storage, Western Digital engineers WD Purple drives for high-temperature, always-on systems so you can rely on quality video when it matters most.
