Purpose-built NAS storage
The WD Red Plus WD40EFPX is a 4TB 3.5-inch hard drive designed for small to medium business NAS systems that operate continuously. Its CMR recording technology and 256MB cache support multi-bay enclosures up to eight drives, delivering the capacity and reliability needed for always-on data protection and sharing.
SATA integration for RAID arrays
The drive connects through a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface and fits standard 3.5-inch bays with maximum dimensions of 147.00mm length, 101.60mm width and 26.10mm height. NASware™ firmware tunes drive parameters for RAID-optimised workloads, while extensive vendor testing ensures compatibility across most NAS enclosures without requiring additional configuration.
Efficient 24/7 operation
Engineered for a 180 TB/yr workload rate, the 5400 RPM spindle speed helps reduce power consumption and heat output compared with previous models. Lower operating temperatures contribute to quieter performance in thermally constrained chassis, supporting dependable long-term operation in systems that run 24 hours a day.
