Uncompromising Video Surveillance Storage

WD Purple hard drives are designed to meet the challenges of continuous video surveillance. They are specifically developed for surveillance systems to withstand the increased heat and vibrations that can occur in NVR devices. Common desktop hard drives are built for short-term operation, but not for the harsh conditions of a 24/7 running HD surveillance system. With WD Purple hard drives, you get a reliable video surveillance storage solution that has been tested for compatibility with numerous video surveillance systems. The exclusive AllFrame™ technology reduces frame loss and enhances video playback.

Industry-leading storage. Surveillance solutions you can trust.

Western Digital has been providing storage solutions for video surveillance for over ten years. With WD Purple hard drives, you receive storage designed for continuous operation in surveillance systems and high temperatures, ensuring high-quality video playback at all times.

Western Digital's exclusive AllFrame™ technology

All WD Purple hard drives feature AllFrame™ technology, which reduces image loss and improves video recording and playback.

Higher workload rate

WD Purple hard drives offer a workload rate of up to 180 TB/year. That's three times more than our desktop hard drives. They are therefore ideally suited to meet the high demands of modern DVR and NVR video surveillance systems.

Multiple cameras, multiple streams

Modern recorders now support multiple video streams per camera. WD Purple hard drives support up to 64 single-stream HD cameras. With this variety, you can flexibly expand your security system at any time.
