The WD Purple Pro is an 8 TB internal hard drive engineered for advanced, AI-enabled surveillance systems. Its 3.5-inch form factor is standard for network video recorders (NVRs), video analytics servers, and deep-learning solutions. The drive is constructed for continuous 24/7 operation, providing reliable storage for environments that capture and analyze video data from multiple high-definition sources simultaneously.
Performance is facilitated by a 7200 RPM spindle speed, a 256 MB cache, and a SATA 6 Gbit/s interface, which together handle high-stream-count workloads. This model features a workload rating of up to 550 TB per year and incorporates Rotational Vibration (RV) sensors to maintain performance in multi-bay systems. The drive's design focuses on data integrity and longevity, making it suitable for professional video monitoring applications that require consistent throughput and dependability.
