WD Purple for NAS drives? YUP
I bought these as I was building a home server/nas and wanted a raid 5 setup (min 3 drives) and they were going into a Jonsbo N1 case which is really small and doesn't have really the best airflow through the drives ( If you look at the pic the highest temp drives are directly behind the fan hub ).These drives however are designed to run constant and hotter than most (upper limit is I believe 70 degrees), they're not the fastest drives but as I'm using these for serving Movies, Music and TV Shows And running Home Assistant i just wanted the reliability.I'm running them via OMV6 in low power and low acoustic mode (I have no idea whether these drives support this but they are virtually silent and the server sits approx 2ft away from me in my office)These came in sealed WD branded boxes in bubble wrap with silica desiccant and all checked out with 0 hrs power on time and no bad sectors etc (Brand New )... ( I got caught out buying from China and received a drive with a 2023 label but over 5 YEARS of runtime !!! )Will be purchasing 2 more very shortly to replace my other old drives.Recommended.

They work straight out of the box
I installed two in a new Hikvision DVR and they initialised quickly and have run smoothly and silently ever since. Cannot comment on longevity, but they are Purples!

Clearly Damaged Drive
The drive is make very auditable clicks which is probably why it was returned in the first place. Clearly damaged could last 2 minutes or 2 years. Will be going back for a full refund as soon as possible.

It's an HDD
I bought this as it details that it is designed for long periods of service.. presumably that means a longer service life.Easy to fit works like normal SATA drives.
