Concern about colors

[Nillennir]

Hi i wanting to upgrade my storage HDD, actually have a 6TB WD Blue almost full and im wondering if purple work for standard pc data storage or is just to surveillance video? Im wattering my mouth for those 12TB HDD

Thank you and sorry for my bad english.

of course, any color hard drive will store pc data … how it performs though, that’s a different story.

Wd Purple for desktop use

This is an intended behaviour of the disc.

Another WD blue series would complement your existing storage
