WD Black Series M.2 NVME are among the best storage sticks that you can buy. I chose the 1TB option as a means to use with an ASUS Strix Arion Enclosure. Trust and believe, if you need a pretty cool portable storage combination, you'd be hard pressed to find a better solution. The Samsung 970 Evo Plus and 980 Evo Pro are about the only two NVMEs that can beat it. Sure, you can also go with Sabrent Pro if you can find them at a decent price. But for readily available NVME? The 1TB and 2TB WD Black NVMEs are the way to go.

Hi there, I just built my first gaming PC recently. I've been using a gaming laptop for some time now, but then decided it was finally time to upgrade. And my main goal was to put performance before looks. So my PC has a minimum amount of RGB lighting. But besides all that, this memory is very fast, my computer turns on in less than 5 seconds, and boots up games almost just as fast. I was very impressed, I'm about to buy a second one.

It works great. My friend and I bought one at the same time. His ranked 99% whereas mine ranked around 80%. Regardless 1tb for the price was well worth it. I have about 15 games downloaded to it including some new high end games. Still have around 300gb left. Also really fast. GTA V online loads in about a minute or less compared to other ridiculous load times.

Operating system load times are BLAZING & put an HDD to shame. It’s rated 1.75M hours MTTF, so it should give MANY years of high performance. Small footprint, no moving parts to break down, completely quiet, & INSANELY FAST...I appreciate all those features & more!

Really fast in my Acer Nitro. 3415 read 2965 write speeds. Much faster than an original sata ssd. This Acer Nitro boots in maybe 5 or 6 seconds. The photos are in this order left to right. WD drive, original pcie drive and a standard crucial ssd.
