WD 8TB SATA III 256MB Purple WD85PURZ

WD Purple drives are designed to meet the challenges of 24x7 video surveillance recording. These drives are specifically designed for surveillance and help withstand the increased heat fluctuations and vibrations of equipment in NVR environments. An average desktop drive is built for short intervals of use, not the harsh 24/7 always-on environment of a high-definition surveillance system. With WD Purple drives, you get reliable surveillance-class storage that has been tested for compatibility in a wide range of security systems. Exclusive AllFrame™ technology helps reduce frame loss and improve overall video playback.
