WD Purple surveillance-class hard drive from Western Digital WD23PURZ

Unmatched surveillance storage

WD Purple drives are designed to meet the challenges of continuous recording of surveillance footage. The drives are designed specifically for surveillance: withstanding a wide range of temperatures and equipment vibration in an NVR environment. The average desktop drive is only capable of operating for short periods of time and is not suitable for use in harsh environments where a high-definition surveillance system is running all the time. WD Purple drives deliver surveillance-grade reliability tested for compatibility with a wide variety of security systems. Unique AllFrame technology helps reduce video frame dropout and enhances playback quality.

Industry-leading storage. Monitoring you can trust

Western Digital has been a provider of surveillance-class data storage for more than a decade. With the WD Purple surveillance solution, the drives are tailored to operate in high temperature, constantly-on surveillance systems. So you can count on high video quality when you need it most. WD Purple delivers intelligent video systems you can trust with a 3-year limited warranty.

Western Digital' exclusive AllFrame technology

All WD Purple drives use AllFrame technology to help reduce video frame dropout and improve video capture and playback quality.

Higher duty cycle

Accommodating workloads of up to 180TB per year - three times higher than standard desktop drives - WD Purple drives are specifically designed to meet the specific requirements for popular DVR and NVR video surveillance systems.

Multiple cameras, multiple video streams

Today's recorders support multiple video streams from a single camera. WD Purple drives support up to 64 single-stream HD5 cameras. With so many options in the future, you have the flexibility to upgrade and expand your security systems.

Designed for surveillance

With a Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) of up to 1 million hours, WD Purple drives are built for 24/7 continuous operation in popular DVR and NVR surveillance systems. With wear-resistant components and the ability to be used in systems containing more than eight drives, WD Purple models deliver reliable performance even in harsh environments.

Compatible with a wide range of devices. Seamless integration

WD Purple hard drives are designed with compatibility in mind, so you can quickly and seamlessly add storage to your surveillance system. Using a wide range of industry-leading enclosures and supported chip sets, you can be sure to find the right DVR or NVR configuration.

Three-year limited warranty

As an industry-leading hard drive manufacturer, Western Digital is confident in its surveillance storage solutions and offers a 3-year limited warranty on all WD Purple drives.

With AllFrame technology, you can trust what you see

WD Purple hard drives feature AllFrame technology, which, combined with the ATA streaming mechanism, among other things, reduces video frame loss and increases the quality of the playback video.

Missing frames and gaps in recording can be a major setback in a security breach situation where recorded video needs to be reviewed. WD Purple hard drives feature AllFrame technology, which, in combination with the ATA streaming mechanism, reduces video frame dropout, enhances playback quality and enables more drives to be supported in an NVR environment.
