Purple 8TB Surveillance Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM Class SATA 6 Gb/s 128MB Cache 3.5 Inch - WD80PURZ

Works like a champ so far, was pretty much plug and play for my security system. Highly recommend this if your doing 4k resolutions, alot of writing, rewriting. Ill update here if it fails or quits, if you see no update its doing its job. Im running 8 4k cameras, and my playback is matching my live view so far.

I put two of these into an NVR and they worked. WD says they're designed to be run 24/7, which is what I needed. They are easy to install, as they're simply SATA drives. Plug in the power & data cables, and boot the device.

Wow.. I ordered four of these 8TB PURZ and they were all bad. Refunding and I am not sure yet whether I want to replace them with Western Digital brand drives again or switch to another brand. Sold by: Better Choice Online Three of these were loud and sounded like the head was scratching the spinning disk when they started. only one showed up in Disk Manager, but it was only for a minute. When I went to initialize the disk, Disk Manager stopped responding and never saw the disk again.

Need some help, when I plug this into my new Lorex NVR and hook it all back up the system is saying 'no disk' so it is not showing up available for me to format. I'm not sure if its and issue with this HD or the NVR, if I plug back in the old HD it shows up fine. Any tips or suggestions for what I should try next?

My surveillance system only came with a 1TB drive so this was purchased to keep a longer active history of the videos. Plug and play. Now I can keep almost a month's worth instead of 4 days.

Purchased two for our new NVR - rock solid performance.

More storage for my NVR. Works great. Not much more to say.

Furious with Western Digital. Bought a MyCloud server to use with external hard drives. After hours of troubleshooting I found out we needed to buy and install an internal hard drive. So I bought this one. Then after installing it, and more hours of troubleshooting, tech support informed me that it won't recognize it on the network properly unless I purchase and install a 2nd hard drive. What's more is that when I tried to return the MyCloud to WD, it was just over a month from purchase, and they wouldn't return it.

Le disque est silencieux, et chauffe modérément. Si vous le destinez à un usage 24/24 7/7 il faudra donc penser à le ventiler un peu. Pour le reste, il fait parfaitement le job.

Bought this to replace a failing Seagate NAS HDD that was being used as video store of my CCTV system. The CCTV is running Blue Iris on Windows, and the PC is a Dell T20 with a Xeon E3-1226v3. It is fed by 3 HikVision 8MP cameras, recording 24/7. The WD Purple is quiet and runs cool, and has no problems keeping up with three camera feeds, and several users reviewing old footage at the same time.

this product i buy but not working this is bad product

Die Festplatten sind bezüglich des Umdrehungsgeräuschs sehr leise, kaum zu hören. Allerdings sind die Zugriffsgeräusche sehr laut. Selbst aus 5 Meter Entfernung hören sie sich an, als ob ein Huhn Körner von einer leeren Blechdose wegpickt. Erst zusätzliche Entkopplungsmaßnahmen im Laufwerkskäfig des QNAP-NAS HS-453DX dämpfen die Zugriffsgeräusche auf ein erträgliches Maß. In meinem NAS werden die Festplatten sehr heiß, 62 Grad werden gemessen, was anscheinend noch im Normalbereich liegt, da die Gradanzeige in Grün dargestellt wird. Dies scheint allerdings auch der Grenzbereich zu sein, denn nach intensiven Speicherarbeiten gibt die NAS eine Warnung aus und meldet 66 Grad in Orange. Laut Beschreibung der WD Purple sind die Festplatten für hohe Temperaturen ausgelegt. Es bleibt abzuwarten, wie sie die ständig grenzwertigen Temperaturen vertragen.

Ottimo prodotto molto silenzioso e performante. Rapporto qualità prezzo interessante. Imballo "a cipolla" sicuro per tutti i tipi di trasporto
