NAS compatibility
Advanced firmware technology built into every WD Red drive, NASware enables seamless integration, robust data protection and optimal performance for systems operating in NAS and RAID environments.

The secret is in the technology
WD’s exclusive NASware technology improves NAS storage performance by reducing common hard drive concerns in NAS systems including concerns for things like compatibility, integration, upgrade ability, reliability and cost of ownership that are experienced with a hard drive designed for desktop computers.

Our exclusive technology, NASware™, makes WD Red thrive in the demanding small-NAS environment.

Our enhanced dual-plane balance control technology significantly improves the overall drive performance and reliability. Hard drives that are not properly balanced may cause excessive vibration and noise in a multidrive system, reduce the hard drive life span, and degrade the performance over time.

good drives, with extra warranty

I upgraded to RED years ago, when my "cheap" drives kept failing one by one just after the warranty ended... Normal drives are not build to last anymore...
The extra quality of RED disc combined with the extra warranty direct from WD makes RED disk a better buy than "normal" drives... if you need drives that can run 24/7 for years...

I bought these to upgrade a WD World Book Network drive. They went into the box one at a time and the drive basically upgraded itself. If you gave an old WD 'Book' product these are a pretty good upgrade path.
