The Western Digital WD Purple Pro is designed for surveillance and smart video applications, with a capacity of 14 TB to store considerable amounts of footage. This internal hard drive operates at a spindle speed of 7200 rpm, ensuring rapid data access with a data transfer rate of 600 MBps. Engineered for effective performance under demanding workloads, it can handle up to 550 TB per year, making it a suitable choice for camera-intensive installations supporting up to 64 cameras.
With a well-structured design, the WD Purple Pro maintains optimal functionality in diverse environments, supporting operating temperatures ranging from 0°C to 65°C. The drive's Advanced Format technology and conventional magnetic recording (CMR) enhance data integrity, while AllFrame AI technology minimizes frame loss. It operates quietly at only 20 dBA, ensuring it won't disrupt peace in surveillance setups. With a high mean time between failures (MTBF) of 2,500,000 hours, it provides reliable service for continuous operation.
