WD Purple™ Pro Surveillance Hard Drive - 26TB

Advanced Storage for Smart Video Solutions

WD Purple Pro drives are designed for advanced AI-enabled recorders, video analytics servers and deep learning solutions requiring additional capacity, performance and workload capability.

• WD Purple Pro hard drive for surveillance is engineered with advanced capabilities
• High performance, reliability and workload capability for advanced AI-enabled recorders, video analytics appliances, deep-learning servers and cloud-based storage, including RAID and JBOD configurations.
• Supports up to 550 TB/yr workload rate (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.) in 8TB –24TB (As used for storage capacity, 1TB = one trillion bytes. Actual user capacity may be less, depending on operating environment.).
• Designed with tarnish-resistant components for harsh environments, and with additional robustness for multi-bay enclosures
• SATA Interface
• Up to 287MB/s Transfer Rate
• 5-Year Limited Warranty

Purpose-Built Storage for Your Smart Video Solution

The WD Purple™ Pro HDD, with OptiNAND™ technology in 26TB (As used for storage capacity, 1TB = one trillion bytes. Actual user capacity may be less, depending on operating environment.), delivers big capacity in an enterprise-class drive for video analytics servers, AI, and deep learning systems to enable data-driven outcomes.

Western Digital's Exclusive AllFrame™ AI Technology

AllFrame AI technology supports up to 32 AI streams for deep learning analytics within the system while reducing frame drops.

Multiple Cameras, Multiple Streams

WD Purple™ Pro drives are optimised to handle up to 64 single-stream HD cameras (Workload Rate is defined as the amount of user data transferred to or from the hard drive. Workload Rate is annualised (TB transferred ✕ (8760 / recorded power-on hours)). Workload Rate will vary depending on your hardware and software components and configurations) in addition to 32 concurrent AI streams. This flexibility allows you to easily upgrade and scale your smart video solution to meet your changing needs.

Advanced Workload Capability for Advanced Systems

These reliable drives are built with a workload rating up to 550TB/year (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.) to keep up with the 24/7 data capture and analysis demands of advanced AI-enabled recorders, video analytics appliances, and deep learning analytics servers.

Designed for Reliable Operation

Engineered with an MTBF of up to 2.5 million hours (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.) and backed with a 5-year limited warranty, the WD Purple™ Pro HDD also features tarnish-resistant components and full multi-bay support for dependable operation in large-scale surveillance systems.
