WD Hard Drive Red Pro WD2002FFSX 2 TB 3.5-Inch Drive with 2 TB Storage Interface: S-ATA III (6 Gb/s), 7200 rpm. Application Area: Desktop PC. Suitable for 24x7 operation. Supports ATA streaming.
The WD Red Pro is designed for use in storage systems with up to 16 drive bays. It impresses with its exceptional NASware 3.0 firmware, outstanding reliability, and intelligent design that minimizes vibrations and reduces heat output.
NASware 3.0: The drive features NASware 3.0 firmware technology, optimized for systems with up to 16 drives in the WD Red Pro. The firmware ensures seamless integration, robust data security, and optimal performance in systems operating in NAS and RAID environments. It reduces common hard drive issues in NAS systems, including compatibility, integration, upgradability, reliability, and total cost problems typically encountered with drives designed for desktop computers, thereby enhancing the performance of NAS storage.
Intelligent Error Handling: Desktop drives are typically not designed for RAID environments and have a controller that prevents the RAID controller from intervening in the event of a failure. With built-in intelligent error handling, NASware 3.0 prevents drives from being disconnected from the RAID due to prolonged error handling. This feature provides greater availability and less downtime for RAID rebuilding.
Command Execution on Power Loss: NASware 3.0 executes the currently processed command during an unexpected power loss before shutting down, thereby minimizing data corruption or loss.
Streaming Support: The WD Red Pro offers built-in compatibility with the ATA streaming feature set, which is important for AV storage applications such as Windows Media Center.

The Western Digital Red Pro is one of the most expensive hard drives in this comparison. The technical data place it somewhere between the inexpensive desktop hard disks and the server models: only an estimated 1 million hours until failure, only 300 TByte workload per year and the data security is also on the level of a desktop hard disk with one read error per 1014 bits...
