The Smart Choice for Surveillance

WD  Surveillance Storage offers exclusive All Frame technology to bring you premium reliability and peace-of-mind when installing your home or small to medium business security system. W-D Purple’s exclusive firmware upgrades work with ATA streaming to reduce error pixelation and video interruptions that occur when desktop hard drives are incorrectly used as storage in security systems. W-D Purple Surveillance Storage is built for 24/7, always-on, high-definition surveillance security systems that use up to eight hard drives and up to 32 cameras. Choose a drive that is designed and engineered for home and business surveillance systems and enjoy the peace-of-mind you can only get from a surveillance-class hard drive.

Desktop drives vs. surveillance-class storage: You wouldn’t use a bicycle to transport cargo across the country because it’s not the right tool for the job. You also shouldn’t use a desktop hard drive in your surveillance security system because it wasn’t designed for that application. W-D Purple surveillance-class storage has been tested to be compatible in a wide-range of security systems. These drives are designed to replace standard desktop drives that were not designed for the harsh 24/7 always-on, high-definition surveillance environment. Desktop drives are built to run for only short intervals and are not engineered to withstand high-temperature fluctuations and equipment vibrations found in a typical surveillance application.
