Running this in Unifi’s UNVR. the 7400 rpm speed made a great difference from slower past drive speeds.

This is one of the many WD Purple label Hard disks that I have ordered.They are great drives, very reliable and fast.I use these WD purple drives in my NAS drives. Just install and forget about them ... :-)From my past experience, these drives will go many years in always on situations without a hitch.Last NAS I had some HD running non-stop for 10 years. Only upgraded the NAS for more speed and installed WD hard drives again for maximum capacity and their bulletproof reliability.Only caveat is they have this continuous fairly loud "thumping" sound.I just ended up placing the NAS drives a little aways, so that the noise of the HD's would not disturb.Highly recommended!!!

I set up the hard drive and installed and initialized my DVR system. I thought everything was ok. However, I noticed that after every 15 minutes, the entire camera system and the DVR would shut down and restart. After going into the audit logs, I could see that it keeps giving an error and can't actually write anything on the drive so the DVR trys to re-initialize and then restart when it still doesn't work it does the same thing over and over. I tried reformatting it re initializing nothing seems to work so I am out 540 bucks and have 0mb of footage recorded so ticked!

These robust, high speed, "24-hour video recording" 18TB HD's make for a terrific solution for churning out monster-sized file renderings from 3D software (Maya, Houdini, etc). The things are absolute beasts, and their resilience and beefiness is exactly why I use them for my "small" personal render farm (one 2-disc 36TB RAID-0 for smaller renders, and a 5-disc 90TB RAID-0 tower for bigger renders) in my home office. Sure, I could have gone for the "Black" version that a lot of gamers prefer (if they are using SATA instead of SSD), but these drives are larger capacity with the same speed, and built to handle even more stress.Should last me several years, no problem, but I will collect a couple more to keep on hand in case (or when) any of the originals fail...Eventually, yes, I'll likely go all-SSD in the future, but not until they are at the same price-point, with the same-or-greater TB size, and equally "indestructible".Brilliant slabs of hardware.

I recently purchased a hard drive and I must say, I am extremely satisfied with its performance and reliability. This hard drive has proven to be a worthy investment, providing ample storage space and good for security camera

You can get them cheaper at your local computer store or from WD, but amazon is convenient so - shut up and take my money.
