Western Digital 6TB WD Purple Surveillance Internal Hard Drive HDD - SATA 6 Gb/s, 256 MB Cache, 3.5Inches - WD64PURZ
The WD surveillance hard drive has been meticulously engineered to cater to the specific needs of mainstream surveillance systems, providing a tailored solution for these critical applications.
At its core, the WD AllFrame technology stands as a pivotal feature, delivering a suite of optimizations finely tuned for the challenges often encountered in mainstream surveillance configurations. These optimizations are precisely crafted to address write-intensive workloads, efficiently manage low bit-rate data, and seamlessly handle high stream-count workloads. These scenarios are typical in surveillance applications, and the WD AllFrame technology ensures that your surveillance system operates with precision, efficiently capturing and storing essential footage without any hitches.
One of the standout features of this hard drive is its capacity to support a substantial workload rate, reaching up to 180 TB per year. Workload rate, as defined, represents the volume of user data transferred to or from the hard drive over the course of a year. This metric underscores the drive's robustness and its ability to manage the constant data flow inherent to surveillance operations. It's worth noting that workload rate can vary depending on your specific hardware and software components and configurations, but the WD surveillance hard drive is designed to excel in demanding conditions.
For users requiring an extensive surveillance setup, this hard drive offers remarkable support for up to 16 drive bays. Drives with capacities of 1TB through 2TB are perfectly suited for up to eight bays, while those with capacities of 3TB and above can adeptly support up to 16 bays. This scalability ensures that you can tailor your surveillance system to precisely meet your needs, whether it's a compact setup or a comprehensive, multi-camera configuration.
