NASware Technology

• The NASware technology improves NAS storage performance by eliminating common hard drive concerns in NAS systems like compatibility, integration, upgradeability, reliability and cost of ownership.

3D Active Balance Plus

• Hard drives that are not properly balanced may cause excessive vibration and noise in a multi-drive system that would reduce the life span of the hard drives and degrade their performance over time. The enhanced dual-plane balance control technology significantly improves overall drive performance and reliability.

Enhanced Reliability

• The WD Red Hard Drive, with a 35% MTBF improvement over standard desktop drives, is designed and manufactured to be a reliable and robust solution.

Compatibility

• The WD Red Hard Drive is specifically designed and tested for small offices and home offices' 1-5 bay NAS systems.

IntelliPower
