Exclusive NASware™ 3.0 Technology

Built into every WD Red Plus hard drive is Western Digital's exclusive NASware 3.0 technology. NASware 3.0 is advanced technology that improves your NAS system by increasing compatibility, integration, upgradeability, and reliability. WD Red Plus drives with NASware technology take the guesswork out of selecting a drive for your NAS system.

Built for Optimum NAS Compatibility

Optimized for NAS systems, our unique algorithm balances performance and reliability in NAS and RAID environments. Simply put, a WD Red Plus drive is one of the most compatible drives available for NAS enclosures. But don't take our word for it.
