"NASware 3.0"

The "NASware 3.0" firmware technology built into every WD Red drive ensures seamless integration, robust data security, and optimal performance in systems that... that operate in NAS and RAID environments. The firmware reduces common hard drive problems in NAS systems, including compatibility, integration, upgradeability, reliability, and total cost of ownership issues encountered with desktop-type hard drives, thereby improving the performance of NAS storage.

Intelligent Error Handling

Desktop drives are typically not designed for RAID environments and have a control mechanism that prevents the RAID controller from intervening in the event of a failure. With built-in intelligent error handling, NASware 3.0 prevents drives from being disconnected from the RAID due to excessively long error handling. This feature provides greater availability and reduces downtime for RAID rebuilds.

Command Execution During Power Failure

In the event of an unexpected power outage, NASware 3.0 executes the currently processed command before shutdown, minimizing data corruption or loss.

Streaming Support

The WD Red Plus offers built-in compatibility with the ATA streaming feature set, which is designed for AV storage applications like Windows Media Center are important.
