Pros: The video surveillance market continues to grow and as cameras in increase in resolution, storage needs increase. Home and small business systems that involve up to a few dozen cameras and have the need to be cost efficient are the target for “Surveillance Specific” hard drives. The two main contenders are the WD Purple series (this) and the Seagate Surveillance series. They achieve “enterprise” disk levels of performance at a fraction of the cost as long as they are used in their very…

Pros: Great drive, optimized for systems that use streaming writes like dvrs and multi camera systems. Needed an additional drive for storing video coming from 6 cameras, handles like a champ. Not sure i’m giving it much of a workout. Though i am confident if i add more cameras this will handle it. Good to have just in case. Great warranty and rated for lots of writes per year. Very confidence inspiring. Cons: Not sure spending extra on this drive unless you absolutely need its streaming…

Pros: Able to handle up to 64 cameras. unfortunately I’m unable to tax it that high as my setup only has 6 cameras. My setup is also motion detected so I had to set up something to keep moving 24/7 so I could really test this drive to its potential. It passed with superbly flying performance. I mean like the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds performing at the same time. I’m sure adding more cameras to it would not slow it down in the least or drop off its performance factors. This drive is…

Pros: Handles multiple streams of video with ease. I have 4 cameras streaming to it constantly. When I went back to view recorded video, it played without any hesitation. There was no stuttering or skipping frames. A surveillance drive is designed to record video 24/7. Most of that video is never played back. When you do need to go view recorded video, you want to know it will be there. This drive delivers that feature. The drive remained cool while it was recording. Temperatures were at the…

Pros: Six terabytes of awesomeness are packed into this purple drive*. It performed well in both DVR and NAS settings, and never missed a read or write. If it’ll be fast enough to suit your purposes, this purple drive is for you. *5.45 TB when formatted NTFS Cons: This drive, as expected, was too large to be recognized in my antiquated 480p DVR system and my older USB2 hard disk sleds. Overall Review: When I tested this drive, I couldn’t simply drop it in my DVR system and report back that…

Pros: While this drive has been designed with a focus on surveillance it would be a perfectly acceptable hard drive in many situations. First, the drive is near silent even on sustained reads/writes. It also runs fairly cool, even under stress for sustained time, peaking out around 95F in a 70F environment with no auxiliary cooling. I’d expect the drive to perform very well in a close proximity hot swap bay installation. It performs decently in synthetic benchmarking I’m getting around…

Pros: This drive surpassed ALL tests including an abstract side test done on an average gaming system. (see other thoughts). . VERY quiet operation. . KILLER price for a SOLID steady performer for cameras OR personal computer use. (see more thoughts) . Camera recording displayed little heat dissipation, but during torrenting or heavy gaming it would rise a smidgin in temp, but still acceptable. So cooling has been perfected in this unit thanks to the 5400 rpms. . Cons: Warranty seems a lil…

Pros: Does what it is made for. Handles my 3 camera set up easily Cons: none so far Overall Review: Ran this three days on a three camera system at 1080p and it didn’t even fill it up after three days. I would feel secure leaving this running and only stopping it if something happens. 2TB is plenty big enough for my needs and playback is wonderful. This will last about a week in my system without overwriting previous recorded writes. That is plenty long enough for me. Now if I needed to let…
