Features
Features	Tuned for NAS with NASware™ Western Digital’s exclusive NASware™ technology fine tunes drive parameters to match NAS system workloads, which helps increase performance and reliability. Designed for Continuous Operation Since your NAS system is always on, a reliable drive is essential. WD Red Plus hard drives are designed for systems that operate 24x7, giving users the confidence of knowing they can reliably access their data. Tested for Dependable Compatibility Western Digital partners with a wide range of NAS system vendors for extensive testing to ensure compatibility with most NAS enclosures. Optimized for Lower TCO WD Red Plus drives are engineered to use less power (versus previous models) and run cooler, which reduces operating costs and helps reduce heat in thermally challenged NAS boxes. Powered for Strong Performance Despite using less power, the drives have plenty of bandwidth to handle the mixed performance demands of multi-drive NAS systems. Balanced for Increased Reliability Hard drives that are not properly balanced may cause excessive vibration and noise in multi-drive systems, which could reduce hard drive life span and degrade the performance over time. Our enhanced dual-plane balance control technology significantly improves balance and increases overall drive performance and reliability. Backed by World-Class Support and Warranty As an industry-leading hard drive manufacturer, Western Digital stands behind their NAS storage solutions with the assurance of a 3-year limited warranty5 and world-class support services for hassle free data storage.
