Description
WD’s exclusive NASware technology, built into every WD Red hard drive,
improves NAS storage performance by reducing common hard drive concerns in
NAS systems including concerns for things like compatibility, integration,
upgradeability, reliability and cost of ownership that are experienced
with a hard drive designed for desktop computers.
WD’s innovative energy efficient technology reduces power consumption
and lowers the operating temperature. The built-in NASware technology
enables seamless integration, robust data protection and optimal
performance for systems operating in NAS and RAID environments.
NAS Compatibility
The WD Red Hard Drive features NASware technology. This advanced
firmware technology enables seamless integration, robust data protection
and optimal performance for systems operating in NAS and RAID environments.
NASware Grows to 3.0
NASware 3.0 allows you to further optimize this WD Red drive for the NAS
environment with added support for 6 to 8 NAS bays. WD Red now supports
small NAS systems from 1 to 8 bays thanks to NASware 3.0, which further
improves drive compatibility and reliability. At 48 TB of total capacity
in an 8 bay system, WD Red expands your NAS experience.
3D Active Balance Plus
Hard drives that are not properly balanced may cause excessive vibration
and noise in a multi-drive system that would reduce the life span of the
hard drives and degrade their performance over time. The enhanced
dual-plane balance control technology significantly improves overall drive
performance and reliability.
Enhanced Reliability
The WD Red Hard Drive, with a 35% MTBF improvement over standard desktop
drives, is designed and manufactured to be a reliable and robust solution.
Compatibility
The WD Red Hard Drive is specifically designed and tested for small
offices and home offices’ 1-5 bay NAS systems.
IntelliPower
IntelliPower is a fine-tuned balance of spin speed, transfer rate and
caching algorithms designed to deliver both significant power savings and
solid performance. Additionally, the WD Red Hard Drives consume less
current during startup, reducing the peak loads on systems during the boot
process.
Premium Support
WD offers free dedicated 24×7 support line exclusively for WD Red Hard
Drive customers.
Energy Efficient
The innovative technology of the drive reduces the power consumption and
lowers the operating temperature making the WD Red Hard Drive a reliable
and an affordable solution for 24×7 NAS environments.
