WD launches Red Drives

VARINDIA- INDIA'S FRONTLINE IT MAGAZINE

 

WD has announced its WD Red hard drives, a line of SATA hard drives specifically designed for home and small office NAS (network attached storage) systems with one to five drive bays. Compatibility-tested with NAS box manufacturers, WD Red hard drives are now shipping in 3.5-inch 1TB, 2TB and 3TB capacities.

The WD Red line features NASware technology along with 3D Active Balance Plus, an enhanced balance control technology. The addition of WD Red expands WD’s “Power of Choice” client hard drive solutions. With distinguishable colours, the “Power of Choice” storage solutions are clear and easy to identify: WD Blue (solid performance and reliability for everyday computing), WD Green (cool, quiet, eco-friendly), WD Black (maximum performance for power computing) and WD Red (home and small office NAS). 

Melyssa Banda, Senior Director - Product Marketing, WD, said, “Until now, customers had to choose between using desktop or high-end server drives for their home or small office NAS systems – neither of which were both cost-effective for consumer solutions and fully NAS compatible. WD saw this challenge as a perfect opportunity to design a better solution so we developed WD Red drives, an optimized product for this rapidly-growing segment.”
