Product Description
The Right Drive for the Right Job. WD Purple Surveillance Hard Drive 4 TB are engineered specifically for surveillance to help withstand the elevated heat fluctuations and equipment vibrations within NVR environments.

With WD Purple, you get reliable, surveillance-class storage tested for compatibility in a wide range of security systems. Some of our latest models (WD22PURZ, WD42PURZ, and WD63PURZ) offer improved power efficiency. Exclusive AllFrame technology helps reduce frame loss and improve overall video playback.
