Western Digital WD140PURZ Purple Surveillance Hdd 14TB

Product Description

The WESTERN DIGITAL WD140PURZ is a 14 TB surveillance-grade hard drive engineered for continuous-write environments such as security camera systems and digital video recorders. Built under the WD Purple product line, this drive is designed to handle the high-duty-cycle demands of always-on surveillance storage. It is well suited for professional installers and integrators who deploy NVR or DVR solutions where drive reliability and sustained write performance are critical. The WD140PURZ ships as a single unit and is sold individually.

This drive targets residential and commercial surveillance installations where large-capacity, always-on storage is required. It fits into NVR and DVR enclosures that accept standard 3.5-inch internal hard drives. Security integrators, low-voltage installers, and IT professionals handling camera system builds are the primary trades that specify and install this unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified security integrator or IT professional familiar with NVR and DVR hardware. Power down the recording system completely before removing or installing any storage drive. Handle the drive carefully to avoid physical shock during installation, as internal platters are sensitive to impact. Follow the enclosure manufacturer guidelines for drive seating, cable connections, and firmware recognition before bringing the system back online.
