Our take
If you're in the market for a robust surveillance drive, this WD Purple Pro looks like a solid contender. The 12TB capacity is ample for extended video storage, and the 7200 RPM rotation speed combined with a 512MB cache should provide reliable performance for continuous recording. The SATA III interface is standard and the 5-year warranty offers good peace of mind, especially for critical surveillance applications. It's purpose-built for NVR/DVR systems, which means it should handle sustained write operations effectively. Just ensure your system can accommodate a 3.5-inch form factor.
