Product information

Description

Western Digital Red Pro WD161KFGX is a 3.5" SATA internal hard drive with 16 TB capacity, 7,200 RPM spindle speed and 512 MB cache. Purpose-built for medium and large NAS systems (up to 24 bays), it is engineered to handle high-intensity, 24x7 workloads and to support RAID arrays and extended file systems such as ZFS. The drive includes extended thermal cycle burn-in testing to help ensure reliable operation under sustained use.

Advantages

WD Red Pro drives incorporate NASware™ 3.0 firmware for improved integration, compatibility and data protection in NAS environments. Multi-axis shock sensors and dynamic fly-height technology help protect data during shock events, while 3D Active Balance Plus reduces vibration for more consistent performance in multi-drive arrays. Error recovery controls are tuned for RAID to reduce drive fallout.

Suitable for

  • High-capacity NAS systems (up to 24 bays)
  • RAID arrays and rebuilds on file systems such as ZFS
  • Enterprise or small/medium business file sharing and archival storage
  • Media servers and centralized backups

Key specifications

  • Capacity: 16 TB (16000 GB)
  • Form factor: 3.5 inch
  • Interface: SATA
  • Rotational speed: 7,200 RPM
  • Cache (buffer): 512 MB
  • Designed operating environment: 24x7 NAS use, up to 24-bay systems
  • Features: NASware™ 3.0 firmware, multi-axis shock sensor, dynamic fly-height technology, 3D Active Balance Plus, RAID-optimized error recovery
  • Weight: approx. 0.69 kg

How to use

Install the WD Red Pro WD161KFGX into a compatible 3.5" SATA bay in your NAS enclosure following the NAS manufacturer's instructions. Configure the drive within your NAS operating system or RAID controller, then initialize and format it according to your chosen file system (for example ZFS or other supported systems). For RAID deployments, allow the array to complete any required resilvering or rebuild processes before placing full production load on the system.

Usage recommendations

Use the WD Red Pro drive in NAS enclosures designed for 3.5" SATA drives and in systems with adequate cooling and vibration mitigation. Avoid mixing drive types with significantly different performance characteristics within the same RAID array, and follow the NAS vendor's compatibility list when possible to ensure optimal integration.
