Western Digital 2TB WD Purple Surveillance Internal Hard Drive HDD - SATA 6 Gb/s, 64 MB Cache, 3.5" - WD20PURZ

Thanks for the fast shipping, and the HD Working properly, but just kinda making some noise (Clicking sound) after adding this, so far the recording running fine. will keep it posted after week of use. thanks again.

Great value and reliable performance i’ve been using this 2 TB hard drive for a day and it’s been excellent. The set up was super quick and easy and it was recognizing immediately. Without any issues. The transfer speed are solid for every day back ups, media storage, and Work files which is what I use it for. It runs quietly. Stays cool. Feels well built. The large capacity is perfect for organizing. Everything. I need all of one place and so far. It is very reliable. Overall, it’s honestly a great price for the product that you get. I definitely recommend it to anyone needing dependable extra storage

My swann security dvr would not record. A symbol on the monitor indicated the hard drive was malfunctioning. Changed the hard drive super easy but the swann would work. Found out the power cord was not giving full power. Changed the power cord and my swann dvr works like brand new...The hard drive super easy to replace and works great...no problems

Drive arrived in padded envelope. Inside was a cardboard box which was a correct drive package. Opening that unsealed box, I discovered a few foam peanuts in addition to the standard plastic frame that typically holds drives. I was initially concerned that I had received a refurbished or used drive, but the drive itself was in a sealed, mylar pouch with a Western Digital label. This drive was not in retail packaging, which is perfectly fine. It would have been nice to have known this so that I wouldn't have had the initial concerns mentioned above. The drive was perfect and continues to work well. I would buy again from this vendor.

Got my Lorex HD recorder back up and running. Was a pretty easy replacement. Pretty much plug and play.

It is a surveillance drive for NVR applications. I am assuming that anyone who knows the difference will understand this & the different build construction of different drives. It is quiet, no obvious noise, I have it running in an Amcrest brand NVR which it fit perfectly, screw holes lined up well, the cable connectors fit perfectly. I cannot measure the temperature during operation, but the NVR does not run hot or even warm, so that is a good sign to me. Longevity - It has not been running for very long, but the WD specs give an expected life (mean measured value, I assume) so I expect it to meet the mean life expectancy. Anything past that is a bonus. Use it for surveillance & it is fine, these are typically important pieces of stored data, but not normally mission critical, if they are, they you are probably an IT expert & you know what to do to back them up anyway (I am NOT an expert, I just have enough knowledge to be dangerous :-)....) Overall I have had good luck with different WD drives over the years & I expect no less from this one I did not get paid, reimbursed, of given anything for free (never do as I am not important enough online!) so you are getting my own unbiased, honest opinion & nothing but that. :-)

So far so good. Was hesitant to get this due to less reviews available for the new version drive but ended up getting one anyway. Works out from the box. No noise increase noted, I added this 8TB WD82PURZ on top of existing skyhawk 3TB in my lorex nvr 900x series. Works great. They are kept on rotation and not mirrored. so I get extended period of surveillance footage. If it works great for long time, will buy another one to make it total 16TB of storage space which should keep me going for a month of 4k video recording. I would recommenced this to any one based on my 2 months of ownership. If anything changes, will update my review.

Has been running for a very long time now

Didn't get the chance to try it, it did not fit my instrument.

Just Wow. HDD is fully functional in cctv use. it's speed is very well, weight is lighter and it's installation is pretty easy. Hdd compatible for most of cctvs.

Duidelijk, snel en geen valse beloftes. Top en erg betrouwbaar

500 euros dans un disque dur qui a tenu 9 mois... Grosse déception sur la qualité WD !
