One of the strengths of the Western Digital Purple is its large capacity of 6 TB, but the low volume and good transfer rates also stood out positively here. However, the access times are somewhat long and the application performance is not particularly convincing.
- low operating temperature
- low power consumption
- three years warranty
- low operating noise
- High random access time and low all-round performance (both irrelavant for the field of application)
Western Digital's Purple series are very individually tailored drives for AV/surveillance use, which are only very conditionally suitable as a replacement for desktop HDDs in normal PCs or HTPCs/recorders. The WD60PURX is particularly good when the focus is on power consumption, thermal emissions and operating noise...
