Your NAS is running hot, your backups are piling up, and that desktop drive you stuffed in there last year? It wasn't built for this. The WD Red Pro 8TB was.
7200RPM speed. 512MB cache. CMR recording. Rated for continuous 24/7 operation and 550TB of writes per year, with up to 2.5 million hours MTBF. Drop it into your multi-bay NAS, build your RAID, and stop worrying about a drive failing mid-backup at 2am.
It's got RAID error recovery control to keep failures from cascading across the array, and it's designed to handle the noise and vibration of a multi-drive enclosure where desktop drives just give up. Up to 235MB/s transfer rate means your creative team actually gets files without staring at a spinner.
RCM certified for Australian use. 5-year limited warranty on the box. 147 × 101.6 × 26.1mm, so it slots into standard 3.5" bays without modification.
