jos123 0 Posted May 31, 2016 Hello, Does anyone here have the WD Purple 8TB tested/working on a Dahua NVR? Are they compatible? If yes will RAID work fine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmcu 0 Posted June 4, 2016 I have a WD 6TB purple in my Dahua NVR. I don't know about the raid config. Their 4k NVR's recommended a 7200 HDD and the purples are not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jos123 0 Posted June 5, 2016 Their 4k NVR's recommended a 7200 HDD and the purples are not. Where are they recommending? WD Purple edition is designed for surveillance so I don't think this will be an issue . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GH75 0 Posted June 6, 2016 I think Seagate has a surveillance specific drive and I saw a youtube video where they did a side by side by side comparison and the Seagate won. However we only install WD purples, and we have installed 2 or 3 of the 4K NVR's with purple drives. Not sure of the size. Max we have gone is 6TB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
