Description
Uncompromising video surveillance storage
WD Purple drives are designed to meet the challenges of 24/7 surveillance video recording. They’re specifically engineered for video surveillance, so they can withstand the extreme temperature fluctuations and vibrations typical of a network video recording (NVR) environment. A typical desktop drive is designed to operate only for short bursts and not in the demanding, always-on environment of a high-definition video surveillance system. WD Purple drives offer reliable video surveillance storage that has been tested for compatibility with a wide range of security systems. Exclusive AllFrame™ technology helps reduce frame loss and improve video playback.
Industry-leading storage. Video surveillance you can trust.
Western Digital has been delivering surveillance-grade storage solutions for over a decade. WD Purple surveillance storage is based on drives designed for surveillance systems that operate 24/7 at high temperatures. So you can enjoy reliable, quality video playback when you need it most. WD Purple offers intelligent, reliable video storage, backed by a 3-year limited warranty.
Western Digital's exclusive AllFrame™ technology
All WD Purple drives feature AllFrame™ technology, which helps reduce dropped frames and improves video recording and playback.
Improved workloads
WD Purple drives have a workload capacity of up to 180TB/year (up to three times that of our desktop drives) to handle the unique demands of general-purpose DVR and NVR video surveillance systems.
Multiple cameras and broadcasts
Modern recorders support multiple video streams per camera. WD Purple drives support up to 64 single-stream HD cameras5. With so many options, you’ll have the flexibility to upgrade or expand your security applications in the future.
Designed for video surveillance solutions
With an MTBF of up to 1 million hours, WD Purple drives are designed to run in general-purpose 24x7 DVR and NVR video surveillance systems. WD Purple drives offer reliable operation even in extreme environments thanks to wear-resistant components and support for more than eight drive bays.
Wide compatibility. Seamless integration.
WD Purple hard drives are built with compatibility in mind, so you can expand the capacity of your video surveillance system quickly and easily. With support for a wide range of industry-leading devices and chipsets, you’re sure to find a DVR or NVR configuration that fits your needs.
Greater reliability with AllFrame™
All WD Purple drives are equipped with AllFrame™ technology, which improves ATA transmission to reduce frame loss, improve video playback and more.
Dropped frames or video fragments are a serious issue when viewing surveillance video. All WD Purple™ drives are equipped with AllFrame™ technology, which enhances ATA streaming to help reduce dropped frames, improve overall video playback, and increase the number of supported drives on an NVR. WD Purple 8TB, 10TB, and 12TB drives with AllFrame AI support up to 360TB/year workloads to enable deep learning analytics that are supported by AI-enabled NVRs.
