Product overview
WD85PURZ is a Western Digital purple surveillance hard Drive 8TB SATA 256MB cache 3.5-Inch. Replacing a failed drive means matching interface, form factor and firmware to the backplane it is going into. This is a SATA unit. Send us the server model and we will confirm the fit rather than leave you to check it.
This part is quoted rather than listed, because the price moves with availability. Send the quantity and we will come back with a number we can stand behind.

Questions buyers ask about this part
Is WD85PURZ genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes, new and sealed, with the Western Digital warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
Will WD85PURZ 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. We quote against a purchase order and hold the price for the quote period, with tiered rates at quantity. Net terms are available once the account is approved.

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