Overview

High reliability NAS hard drives

Sporting the original NAS hard drive colour, the WD Red Pro 6TB continues the success of WD Red products by adding support for 1-bay to 24-bay storage systems for medium and large businesses. WD Red Pro hard drives include exclusive WD NASware 3.0 technology that provides unmatched compatibility, reliability and performance.

Professional solutions

Created specifically for SMBs, the WD Red range has just been enriched with the WD Red Pro models, which are available for medium and large NAS environments with 1 to 24 bays. Featuring 6TB of capacity, the WD Red Pro comes with a 5-year limited warranty and is designed to support your business's growing workloads.

WD Red Pro comes with NASware 3.0, which improves system compatibility and ensures seamless integration into your network infrastructure. Add value to your business by enabling your employees to quickly share files and reliably back up folders with WD Red Pro hard drives in your NAS solution.

Because your NAS system is always up and running, it's essential to use a drive with high reliability. With a 35% increase in mean time between failures (MTBF) over standard hard drives, WD Red with NASware 3.0 is designed for 24/7 environments. Delivered with Time-Limited Error Recovery(TLER) built into NASware 3.0, WD Red Pro prevents failures caused by error recovery that are common with desktop hard drives.

    Good record

    The hard drive is very good. I haven't yet been able to measure its performance. As for reliability, in the past I've had specialist RAID drives that lasted at least 5 years, and if I've changed a few, it's because I was running out of space, not because they'd failed. The drive is still a bit noisy when it's performing operations (it 'scratches'), hence one less star.

    As good as ever

    The main point has been made in these comments.
    I just want to clarify, approximately:
    150 MB/s writing
    250 MB/s reading

    Of course, as always, less efficient with small files.

    True to form, as always!

    The WD Red Pro 14Tb joined its little friends in the NAS without a hitch. Nickel installation, immediately recognised, it does its job perfectly as expected. Quiet, reliable, perfect for long-term storage. A sure bet for demanding NAS users!

    Very satisfied with this hard drive, as always, or almost always with WD drives.

    Very satisfied with this hard drive, as always, or almost always with Western Digital drives. Quiet, large storage capacity. No problems with installation and support with QNAP TS-464-8G. But, not enough hindsight, to assess the reliability of this drive in the long term :).

    High performance - normally reliable ;-)

    A drive designed for long-term use with a heavy workload.
    There's certainly more to it than that, but among HDDs designed for NAS and small servers, its capacity to withstand the load of annual transfer volumes puts it at the top of the range, with a 5-year warranty compared with 2 or 3 years for competitors.

    + More expensive than others, but designed to last under intensive use.

    Installed in a QNAP NAS and a small TR-004 storage bay
    No hindsight yet on reliability / theory, as 2 weeks of use at this stage
