Desktop Drives vs. WD Red WD60EFAX

Desktop hard drives are not typically designed for NAS environments. Do right by your NAS and choose the drive designed for NAS, with an array of features to help preserve your data and maintain optimum performance. Consider the following when choosing a hard drive for your NAS:

• Compatibility
  Without being tested for compatibility with your NAS system, optimum performance of desktop drives is not guaranteed.
• Reliability
  Unlike most desktop drives, the WD WD60EFAX drive is designed for the challenging, always-on environment of a NAS or RAID.
• Error recovery controls
  The WD60EFAX drive is specifically designed with RAID error recovery control to help reduce failures within the NAS system, unlike desktop drives.
• Noise and Vibration Protection
  Designed to operate solo, desktop drives typically offer little or no protection from the noise and vibration of a multi-drive system. The WD60EFAX drive is designed for multi-bay NAS systems.
