I would buy another. I would recommend one. I'm not paid anything in any form to give this review. The internet is full of fake reviews from paid writers that probably never even used the product. They also have reviews to slam products of competitors. I know, it's slimy.
Runs cooler in my security system than my old WD drive; Installed, formatted right away, went right back to recording; I will not be able to give an honest review on storage quality for a couple of months; I will return; Same price as my old WD 250gb drive.
None yet; Will return to do a full review in a couple of months

Great disk and easily handles 16 camera streams.

We have always had VERY good experiences with these "Purple" hard drives and up to this point have never had a bad one or a failure out of box! We tried others with regards to CCTV and wasn't the case. Nothing but good things to say about the Purple Hard Drives... won't use anything else.
I purchased a couple of these to put in a Drobo NAS box. Plan to order a few more very soon. Very well made and reliable hard drives perfect for using in a NAS box. While I'd love to invest in SSD's eventually, in the meantime, these are the next best thing to use if you want a good combination of...
