In pursuit of the performance of the "Black Disk" (Western Digital series), Low power consumption small "green disk" (WD Green Series) and focus on the daily use of the "Blue Disk" (WD Blue Series), Western data for the NAS market launched a "Hongpan" (WD Red) series HDD. This series is geared toward a home or small business NAS user with "1 to 5 hard drive bits", which employs a SATA interface, 3.5 inches in size and 1TB, 2TB and 3TB in capacity.
With the development of NAS technology, home-class NAS products gradually increased, NAS has been from the previous high level only enterprise adoption to now has begun to walk into the home of ordinary users, now more users choose to install a NAS at home for data sharing, backup and so on. The hard disk used in NAS basically needs to maintain 7x24 working time, so the hard disk's long working capacity and energy consumption are more important.
Most of the impression of the West is still in the black plate, blue plate, green plate three types, now the west to push the new type: Hongpan. It is well known that the number of each color plate of the west represents his functional characteristics, the launch of the Hongpan is no exception, the characteristics of its technology is called Nasware, the technology for the NAS requirements, its compatibility, stability and other characteristics of the optimization, and really make it for the NAS-launched hard disk products.
From the product characteristics, the west number of the launch of the Hongpan product performance characteristics and green disk is relatively close to low power consumption, less noise, can adapt to long-term continuous work, but it also has his unique characteristics. Hongpan's Nasware technology makes it more compatible, with outstanding compatibility performance for NAS or RAID, and in order to accommodate the long running and RAID-enabled NAS hard drive, Hongpan has deliberately added intelligent error recovery technology Avoid raid drop caused by excessive error recovery time, which greatly enhances the usability of Hongpan; it smells. Enhance its data storage reliability, Nasware will also be in the sudden power outage will be running after the execution of the power, the maximum reduction of data loss or damage probability; And this product also supports the functional features required by professional NAS systems such as S.M.A.R.T directives, streaming transmissions, power management, and Bic addressing.
