Video surveillance has been around for years. Grainy gas station cameras are giving way to higher-end 1080p-capable IP cameras, and storage is evolving to meet the needs of these ever-expanding solutions. Today we look at two new entries into the market...

In small towns and large cities all over the world, surveillance is on the rise. I'm not talking about large scale government eyes, but rather surveillance on a much smaller scale. Just weeks ago in the small town I live in, where it's rare to find a lock...
  • Like the Red series before it, the new Purple series brings peace of mind when configuring a specific application system. Right out of the box, end users know that the drives work in the application and have the features needed to make a successful proje...

We have already had the pleasure to see how WD's 6TB Purple surveillance hard disk performed in our previous review, but WD was kind enough to provide us with two of these drives and thereby allowing us to test them in a RAID environment too. A surveillan...

  • The 6TB Purple surveillance drive from WD already impressed us in its single drive review and it was no different in this RAID review with two of these great hard disk drives. When it comes to security and safety, there shouldn't be any compromises and yo...

In today's review, I am taking a look at a mechanical hard disk, but it isn't one that is intended for your desktop system. Western Digital created their Purple line of hard disk drives to be the perfect choice for digital video recording, network video r...

  • Mechanical drive: higher noise and power consumption than solid state, “WD’s Purple drives are made surveillance systems and that is one place where you shouldn’t compromise. When every frame counts, you’ll want something you can rely on.”, WD Purple 6TB...
  • One should never compromise when it comes to safety and surveillance falls within that category. WD's Purple series is designed for just this task and after seeing it in action, there is little doubt that Purple is a great choice for this. The WD Purple 6...

Hard drives with a capacity of 2TB or 3TB, a few years ago it seemed a lot, but now we laugh. Seagate recently announced the first 8TB drive and the number of drives with a capacity of 5TB or 6TB also increasing hand over fist. Western Digital sent us the...
  • At a time when SSDs hip & happening it is good to know that the developments of hard drives do not stand still. 6 TB is a nice size, with even the most avid collectors of HD movies or RAW photos effort will have to fill it.The Western Digital Green 6TB cl...

Western Digital's great devised by dividing the diversity of its HDD consumer focus on a few well-remembered “color” of sorts. This approach not only facilitates the selection of the hard drive to the destination, but also guarantees attention to the new...

While the price of SSDs continues to drop, the ‘old' hard drive is still the cheapest way to store a lot of data. Especially in a NAS or Mini-ITX system, where there is limited physical space you probably want a drive with as much capacity as possible...
  • We are starting this conclusion with the 6TB-drives. The Toshiba MD04ACA 6TB and X300 6TB offer good performance in this segment for a relatively low price, but are clearly audible with noise levels that are nearly at 40 dB(A) when idle. Nevertheless th...
