Product overview
The Western Digital purple surveillance hard Drive 3TB SATA 256MB cache 3.5-Inch is supplied under part number WD33PURZ. Vendor-keyed firmware is the usual reason a mechanically identical drive is rejected by the controller, and a 3TB spare is not worth discovering that on. We check the firmware family against your controller before the drive ships.
If the part is wrong for your platform we will say so and suggest the one that is, which is cheaper for both of us than a return.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
WD33PURZ is what is quoted and WD33PURZ is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is WD33PURZ genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. Supplied new and unopened, so the manufacturer warranty and firmware update path stay supported. No grey-market stock and no refurbished units sold as new.
Will WD33PURZ work in my server?
Send the server model or the shelf it is going into. Vendor-keyed firmware is the usual reason an identical-looking drive is rejected, so we check that alongside interface and form factor.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Bulk capacity usually sits behind the flash tier that feeds a training cluster rather than under it.
