WD Red Pro drives are a reflection of extensive NAS partner technology engagement and compatibility-testing. Larger NAS Bay Shock Protection WD Red Pro drives are equipped with a multi-axis shock sensor that automatically detects subtle shock events and dynamic fly height technology which adjusts each read-write function to compensate and protect the data. This combination of technology further protects the drives in larger 24-bay NAS environments and helps increase hard drive reliability.3D Active Balance Plus Our enhanced dual-plane balance control technology significantly improves the overall drive performance and reliability. Hard drives that are not properly balanced may cause excessive vibration and noise in a multi-drive system, reduce the hard drive life span, and degrade the performance over time. Error Recovery Prevention Built specifically for RAID and NAS environments, WD Red Pro drives come equipped with error recovery controls as part of NASware 3.0 technology to help reduce drive fallout in RAID applications.Extended Drive Testing A NAS environment that has up to 24 bays is very demanding on a hard drive with added vibration and heat.

Desktop Drives vs. WD Red Pro It is important to choose a drive purpose-built for NAS with the features you need to help preserve your data and maintain optimum performance. Take the following into consideration when choosing a hard drive for your NAS: Compatibility: Unlike desktop drives, these drives are specifically tested for compatibility with NAS systems for optimum performance. Reliability: Desktop drives arent typically designed for the demands of an always-on NAS environment. WD Red Pro NAS hard drives are tested under tough conditions like you might experience in your environment. Error Recovery Controls: WD Red Pro NAS hard drives are specifically designed with RAID error recovery control to help reduce failures within the NAS system. Noise and Vibration Protection: Designed to operate solo, desktop drives typically offer little or no protection from the noise and vibration present in a multi-drive system. WD Red Pro drives are designed to thrive in multi-bay NAS system environments. Supports up to 300 TB/yr workload rate. NASware firmware for compatibility. Medium or large-sized businesses in RAID-optimized NAS systems with up to 24 bays in a 24/7 environment
