Product overview
The Western Digital purple 4TB 5400RPM SATA 64MB 3.5-Inch surveillance hard Drive is supplied under part number WD42PURZ. Vendor-keyed firmware is the usual reason a mechanically identical drive is rejected by the controller, and a 4TB spare is not worth discovering that on. We check the firmware family against your controller before the drive ships.
Quote requests are answered within 48 business hours, with availability confirmed before you raise a purchase order rather than after.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against WD42PURZ specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.

A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Firmware family matched
A mechanically identical drive with the wrong firmware is rejected by the controller; we check the family, not just the capacity.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is WD42PURZ genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. It ships new in Western Digital packaging, which is what keeps the warranty and the firmware entitlement valid. Anything we cannot supply that way we tell you about before you order.
Will WD42PURZ 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. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.

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