WD 2 TB Surveillance Hard Drive - Purple

Product Information

A better brand’s hard drive provides you with better service. So you should choose the best brand that can supply you with a great surveillance system hard drive. We recommend Western Digital. WD is a well-known brand all over the world. Running this simple software, you can instantly estimate the total video storage for your desired storage (number of days) per network camera. Additionally, you can use the formula as below: Rotational vibration (RV) sensors help maintain performance in RAID and multi-drive systems (4TB or higher) Encryption is the process of taking readable text or data and encoding it using a key—a random string of bits, generated by an encryption algorithm—so that only someone in possession of the key can decrypt it. Most mainstream encrypted SSDs and hard drives provide what's known as AES 256-bit hardware-based encryption, while most hyper-secure keypad-accessible drives utilize XTS-AES 256-bit hardware-based encryption. A surveillance system works on ethics, if you have configured the settings then they record only when slight motion is detected or they can continuously record 24/7.

After that carefully unplug the SATA cable and power cable from the hard drive. A simple mistake can damage the pin. So be careful when unplugging. You will also hear of drives being FIPS 197-compliant. FIPS 197 covers only the encryption, and is today better known by the name of the algorithm that FIPS Publication 197 introduced: Advanced Encryption Standard, or AES. So a FIPS 197-compliant drive is simply one that uses AES hardware-based encryption.A: A good hard drive that is specially designed for a surveillance system can record 24/7 nonstop in your DVR/NVR system. It is a very essential component for surveillance video storage. During video surveillance planning stage, we often face a question – how many HDDs should I use for my video surveillance system. Estimating or calculating the required video storage can be quite simple by using the formula, or it can be complicated when considering many factors including resolution, frame rate, video compression, and bitrate settings. We herein provide you a freeware which can calculate the video storage requirement of the camera based on many these variable parameters. Using this calculator you can roughly estimate how long can a HDD record in your computer/DVR/NVR. A surveillance hard drive can record 24/7 nonstop. While some other hard drives aren’t able to do this. Maximum 180TB/year workload rating—3× the workload rating of desktop drives—for reliable performance in write-intensive surveillance systems It’s built with WD’s special ALLFrameTM Technology for better performance. This All Frame technology is used to improve video capturing and help to reduce errors, pixilation, and video interruptions which could happen in the video recording system.

We suggest that you use an exclusive surveillance or professional class hard drive for your surveillance system. Use a DVR embedded with a surveillance hard drive for the scale of a video surveillance system that is equipped with a few HD cameras. There have a few things that must be considered before buying a hard drive for your surveillance system. If you require more than 15 cameras then go for an IP camera and utilize an NVR which will be better to upgrade the system in the future. Today our technology has developed and now we use very upgraded technology for our surveillance system. The trend for IP cameras is now being observed due to developing technology. The manufacturer replaced the analog cameras with an IP camera that helps to integrate both hybrid NVRs and video management systems. A: Yes, you can connect one or a couple of external hard drives to a single DVR. It will increase your recording storage and provide you with long time storage capacity.

WD external hard drive built for compatibility with chassis and chipset manufacturers for installation into your new or existing video surveillance system. Another feature that drive-makers tout and clients covet is the inclusion of a Common Criteria EAL5+ (hardware-certified) secure microprocessor. Such a device, through a combination of true random number generation and built-in cryptography, further protects against drive tampering.

A: Yes, DVR comes with an internal hard drive. You can also add or replace the hard drive in the DVR system. It is very easy. Read the DVR Hard Drive Replacement for details.

A solid-state drive (SSD) uses different technology to remove the spinning parts while a traditional hard drive also has spinning disks. SSD has no moving parts and will last longer. Wanneer wordt verwezen naar schijfcapaciteit staat één gigabyte, of GB voor één miljard bytes, en één terabyte, of TB, voor duizend miljard bytes. Mogelijk wordt in het besturingssysteem van uw computer een andere meetnorm gebruikt en wordt er een lagere capaciteit gemeld. Daarnaast wordt een deel van de weergegeven capaciteit gebruikt voor de indeling van de schijf en andere functies, waardoor dit niet beschikbaar is voor gegevensopslag. Kwantitatieve gebruiksvoorbeelden voor verschillende toepassingen zijn informatief bedoeld. De werkelijke hoeveelheden zullen variëren afhankelijk van verschillende factoren, zoals de bestandsindeling, de bestandsgrootte, functies en toepassingssoftware. Werkelijke snelheden voor gegevensoverdracht zijn afhankelijk van het besturingssysteem en andere factoren.
