Customer Ratings & Reviews

The day before my memorial weekend camping trip my HD in my dvr decided to quit on me. Upon doing some research i seen this model was the most mentioned option. Ordered it and picked it up next day, took my 5 mins to swap it out with the old one. Plugged DVR in and it booted straight up without any extra work. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a replacement, especially if you have a samsung wisenet dvr!!!! Easily replaced the 2TB Greenpower Western Digital that it originally came with!!!

Easy to choose with great selection of HD SSA and free shipping. Best price vs the big Azm with additional prime fee.

I had this HDD added to a new PC purchased in December 2024. I just picked up the first 4TB drive I saw on the shelf at Best Buy. It runs silently and seems pretty quick to access the files that I do have stored on it. Running a disk utility shows it to be 'only' 5400 rpm. I had sort of expected a higher rpm rate, but admit that I also like the quieter and less power hungry attributes of a slower spin rate. I have owned dozens of computers in the last 35 years and so far have never had a HDD fail on me, so I expect many years of service from this one. Bear in mind that the first HDD I bought was a 40MB (mega, not giga!) one for $600 in 1986 dollars, so the price per unit storage has dropped by several orders of magnitude.

Great hard drive was easy to install and helped resolve our problem with our Dvr video surveillance system

Work great in the swan dvr for camera system. Easy to install and set up

Its a hard drive, it wasn't dead in the box so I'd say its a good product. Bonus though, the Switch 2 was on the shelf so I got one of those too!

I use this particular hard drive very often. It is very reliable in price just right and does the job very well. I highly recommend.

This internal hard drive was purchased to replace the bad H/D in my security DVR. I didn't have any issues with the formatting or the installation and now the DVR is quite and recording my home security.

I was trying to upgrade from a 2gb to 4gb and have more available storage. The price was hard to resist. The product arrived in a timely manner. The installation was very easy. In under 5 minutes the hard disk was up and running. Functioning is smooth. I recommend the product.

I had purchased this for my new NVR, and so far it has been working great with no issues. Would purchase again.

WD purple replaced my HD for my security system and worked well. Was east to plug in for operation.

Great choice for your surveillance devices. Last one lasted a couple years and its a great value for choice.

The WD Purple is a good investment. It is a high-quality product, especially for its intended purpose, and is recommended for anyone needing a reliable and durable hard drive for their surveillance system.

Works well. Connected it to the NVR without problems

Superb build quality that handles many repeated read/write cycles

We bought this to store video for surveillance recording. Our old system was only able to go back 2 weeks, this one has stored everything for the last month. Works well, stores so much and for the cost, cant beat it!!!

Work nice , fast worth money , can buy angain!!!!!

Installed in my new DVR for good amount of video storage. Installation was easy and WD Purple fit the bill.

Specifically I’d like to give an excellent rating to the employees in the audio/visual home security department. Several employees in other departments told us incorrect information, but the 2 gentlemen from the home security audio/visual department were a huge help and directed us to the correct item that we needed.
