3TB NAS drive for 1 to 16 bay systems

This 3.5 inch internal hard drive delivers 3TB capacity over a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 64MB cache and uses WD Red Pro firmware tuned for multi-bay NAS enclosures. The bare drive ships without screws cables or manuals.

Suited for NAS appliances needing sustained

Builders of 1 to 16 bay NAS storage servers will match the drive's workload rating and vibration tolerance. Desktop users wanting a primary OS drive or external single-disk backup should consider a different model optimised for those access patterns.

SATA 6.0Gb/s interface determines host compatibility

The drive connects only through a standard SATA 6.0Gb/s port on a NAS backplane motherboard or controller card. Systems lacking a free SATA data and power connection cannot use this drive without an adapter.
