Product Features

  • Beyond desktop with NASware
  • WD Red drives include WD's exclusive NASware technology that addresses many of the challenges a traditional desktop hard drive has in a NAS system. WD works directly with the partners to test compatibility and reduce thecustomer's guess work as to which drive is right for their NAS system. Designed to deliver a better customer experience in small NAS systems,this innovative firmware finely balances the most important attributes of performance,power,and reliability in multiple drive environments. The unique algorithms in NASware optimize power and performance without compromising on the attributes that NAS-system owner's value.
  • Important features for system integrators
  • In addition to features that make WD Red drives perfect for populating or upgrading NAS systems,NASware brings features that system integrators need when building specialized NAS systems.
  • Save power and money
  • NASware optimizes power use resulting in significant power savings and lower hard drive operating temperatures. This improves the overall reliability and performance of the drive and reduces the NAS cost of ownership.
  • Intelligent error recovery
  • With built in intelligent error recovery controls,NASware also prevents hard drives from being dropped off the RAID due to extended error recovery. This provides more availability and less down time rebuilding the RAID.
  • Command completion
  • To further improve reliability,NASware minimizes the data corruption or loss in the event of an unexpected power loss by completing the command in process before shutting down.

Built for Optimum NAS Compatibility

BUILT FOR OPTIMUM NAS COMPATIBILITY


Designed for personal and home office NAS systems, our unique algorithm balances performance and reliability in NAS and RAID environments. WD Red drives are optimized for environments where idle time is available to perform necessary background operations. To ensure optimal performance, always check compatibility with your system. WD Red drives may not be suitable for higher workload environments. For ZFS file systems and overall NAS system compatibility, we highly recommend WD Red Plus drives, which are optimized for higher workloads.

24/7 Environment

24/7 ENVIRONMENT


Since your NAS system is always on, a reliable drive is essential. With an MTBF of up to 1 million hours, the WD Red drive is engineered to tackle 24x7 environments.

Premium Support and a 3-year Limited Warranty

PREMIUM SUPPORT AND A 3-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY


Confidently upgrade your NAS performance with the assurance of a 3-year limited warranty, coupled with world-class support services included with every WD Red drive.

Desktop Drives vs. WD Red<sup>™</sup>

DESKTOP DRIVES VS. WD RED


  • Compatibility: Unlike desktop drives, these drives are specifically tested for compatibility with NAS systems for optimum performance.

  • Reliability: The always-on environment of a NAS or RAID is a hot one, and desktop drives aren't typically designed and tested under those conditions like WD Red is.

  • Error Recovery Controls: WD Red 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 drives are designed to thrive in multi-bay NAS system environments.
