If it's 'NOT' in the picture, or in the description, then it will 'NOT' be included in this sale. (It may require additional cables, plugs, or even more components to fully function properly. All of our auctions include notes on the condition of the item/s being sold.)

Please make sure you use safe handling practices to prevent electro static discharge (ESD) when handling sensitive electronic components.

Damage can occur to electronic components through ESD (Electro Static Discharge), so be very careful when handling electronic components and be sure to use a Grounding Wrist Strap. The easiest way to remove a static charge from your body is to touch a grounded object like the screws on a light switch panel (providing that your home or office has an earth grounded outlet).

WD Purple drives are designed to meet the challenges of 24x7 video surveillance recording. These drives are engineered specifically for surveillance to help withstand the elevated heat fluctuations and equipment vibrations within NVR environments. An average desktop drive is built to run for only short intervals, 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’s tested for compatibility in a wide range of security systems. Exclusive AllFrame™ technology helps reduce frame loss and improve overall video playback.

Disclosures

  1. 1TB = one trillion bytes. Actual user capacity may be less, depending on operating environment.
  2. Single stream per camera @ 3.2Mbps (1080p, H.265, 25 fps). Results may vary depending on camera resolution, file format, frames per second, software, system settings, video quality, and other factors.
  3. Workload Rate is defined as the amount of user data transferred to or from the hard drive. Workload Rate is annualized (TB transferred ✕ (8760 / recorded power-on hours)). Workload Rate will vary depending on your hardware and software components and configurations.
  4. Projected values. When final, MTBF, and AFR specifications will be based on a sample population and are estimated by statistical measurements and acceleration algorithms under typical operating conditions, workload of 220TB/year, and drive temperature of 40°C. Derating of MTBF and AFR will occur above these parameters, up to 550TB writes per year, and 65°C drive temperature. MTBF and AFR ratings do not predict an individual drive’s reliability and do not constitute a warranty.
