Western Digital Expands WD Purple Family with WD Purple Pro Hard Drives

Western Digital recently announced the expansion of the WD Purple family with the WD Purple Pro line, which combines hard drives for next-generation video surveillance systems.

According to IDC estimates, the global CCTV camera market will grow from $ 23.6 billion in 2019 to $ 44 billion in 2025. New intelligent video surveillance systems that capture, store and process huge amounts of video data, performing heavy video analytics using deep learning technologies, are placing an unprecedented level of stress on storage subsystems. WD Purple Pro drives are designed for just such workloads. They are optimized for performance, volume, workload, and reliability. Hard drives are designed for a variety of devices, including AI-enabled network video recorders (NVRs), video analytics servers, storage arrays, and more.
