Western Digital Red, SATA 6G, Intellipower, 3.5 inch - 10TB [WD100EFAX]

The new color for NAS! The black, blue and green series of plates are now joined by another color "Red". The plates from the brand new Red series are specially designed for continuous operation, a very important target group. They are therefore predestined for use in NAS systems and RAID setups. With 256 MB cache, the plates of the Red series offer more than enough reserves for this purpose.

The hard drive presented here is a new powerful NAS hard drive with high transfer rates and a storage capacity of 10 TB. This is a version of the Red with modern SATA 6G connection.

At 210 MB / s the limit of the SATA interface is anything but exhausted, the SATA 6G installed here offers not only the advantage of a higher bandwidth. The protocol has also been significantly refined in order, for example, to increase energy efficiency and to optimize the transmission of several simultaneous data streams with a high bandwidth.

NAS is an impressive interface with which it is easy to exchange data quickly and easily between different devices. The Western Digital Red hard drives are equipped with NASware 3.0. This increases system compatibility and allows seamless integration into existing network infrastructures.

3D Active Balance Plus in the WD Red is an advanced technology for mass balancing on two levels. It improves overall performance and reliability of the drive. Hard disks without proper mass balancing can cause excessive vibration and noise in a multi-drive system, reduce the life of the hard disks, and eventually drop the performance. This is why Western Digital is applying its 10TB hard drive with an enormous average lifetime (MTBF) of one million hours.

With 6.2 W in read / write mode, 2.8 W in idle, and 0.5 in standby mode, the power consumption of the Western Digital Red 10 TB keeps relatively low, which not only benefits the NAS system, but also The purse.
