The 8TB Purple 5400 rpm SATA III 3.5″ Internal Surveillance Hard Drive from WD is designed to withstand the stresses placed on it in a 24/7, always-on, high-definition surveillance system with 8+ drive bays. With support for up to 64 high-definition surveillance cameras, this 8TB hard drive can hold a large amount of data and gives you the ability to easily upgrade and expand your security system.
