Desktop Drives vs. WD Red Plus

Do right by your NAS and choose the drive purpose-built for NAS with an array of features to help preserve your data and maintain optimum performance. Take the following into consideration when choosing a hard drive for your NAS:

• Compatibility
  Unlike desktop drives, this drive is specifically tested for compatibility with NAS systems for optimum performance.
• Reliability
  The always-on environment of a NAS or RAID is a hot one, and desktop drives aren’t typically designed and tested under those conditions like this WD Red Plus drive is.
• Error Recovery Controls
  This WD Red Plus NAS hard drive is specifically designed with RAID error recovery control to help reduce failures within the NAS system.
• Noise and Vibration Protection
  Designed to operate solo, desktop drives typically offer little or no protection from the noise and vibration present in a multi-drive system. This WD Red Plus drive is designed to thrive in multi-bay NAS system environments.
