NAS System Compatibility3
The WD Red family of SSDs has been compatibility-tested by major NAS system providers with their NAS systems and components, such as host bus adapters, controller cards, and enclosures. Click on any of the NAS system provider names below to see their own compatibility lists.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it’s definitely possible to create a NAS system just using SSDs. This setup is beneficial for applications requiring high read/write speeds and low latency, and it’s often used in environments that handle large volumes of transactions or big data processing tasks. That’s because flash technology, which is the foundation of any solid state drive, uses magnetic charges to quickly read and write data without waiting on the moving, mechanical components of hard drives.
However, you’ll want to make sure that your NAS enclosure can accommodate this kind of setup. For example, can you use 2.5-inch internal SSDs in your NAS enclosure’s removable bays?
Disclosures
1. 1GB = 1 billion bytes and 1TB = one trillion bytes. Actual user capacity may be less, depending on operating environment.
2. TBW (terabytes written) values calculated using JEDEC client workload (JESD219) and vary by product capacity.
3. Western Digital makes no warranty, implied or otherwise, and cannot be held liable regarding the compatibility of its internal hard drives when used with NAS systems identified as compatible by the system providers above.
