Professional solutions
Designed specifically with small and medium business customers in mind, the WD Red family has expanded with the addition of the WD Red Pro, which is available for medium and large NAS environments with 8 to 16 bays. With up to 4 TB capacity, the WD Red Pro is designed to handle the increased workloads of your business.
-
Exclusive NASware technology
The exclusive advanced firmware technology built into every WD Red Pro NASware drive enables seamless integration, reliable data protection and optimal performance for systems operating in the demanding NAS environment.
-
NAS experience
WD Red is a reflection of the most extensive NAS partner compatibility testing list available on the market. This means that when you're shopping for a NAS enclosure, you can trust that WD Red will be the most compatible drive available.
-
Vibration protection
Combined with 3D Active Balance Plus, the WD Red Pro also features hardware vibration compensation technology that monitors the drive to correct linear and rotational vibrations in real time, further increasing drive reliability.
-
Increased accuracy for NAS
For overall increased accuracy for the NAS, the WD Red Pro is also equipped with dual drive technology that improves positioning accuracy on data tracks and head positioning. StableTrac technology then secures the motor shaft at both ends to reduce system-induced vibration and stabilize the platters for precise tracking during read and write operations. Both technologies are important for larger NAS environments with 8 to 16 bays.
-
Impact protection for 8 to 16 sockets
The WD Red Pro is equipped with a multi-axis shock sensor that automatically detects subtle shock events, and dynamic flight height technology that adjusts each read and write function to compensate and protect data. This combination of technologies further protects drives in large 8 to 16 NAS bays and increases drive reliability.
-
Extended disk testing
The 8 to 16 bay NAS environment is very demanding on the hard drive with added vibration, heat and other factors. That's why every WD Red Pro hard drive comes with advanced burn-in thermal cycle testing, ensuring each drive continues to perform reliably.
-
Prevent error recovery
Designed specifically for RAID and NAS environments, WD Red Pro drives are equipped with error recovery controls as part of the NASware, which prevents the drive from dropping out in RAID applications.
