- Key Specs
- Storage Capacity: 4000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
- Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Maximum Read Speed: 5500 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
- Maximum Write Speed: 5000 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
- Form Factor: M.2 2280
- Interface(s): PCIe Gen 4 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

WD 4TB 4x4 Review
Have had WD before. Works great out of box. Speeds as advertised. Will purchase again and do recommend. Installed around Oct. 2025 and will update in time.

Slower than expected but works
This is running slow on my new build, much slower than I like. My previous WD Blue SN500 is incredibly fast compared to this one. I have it in the 1st M.2 PCIe 5 slot. The WD tool says it is connected with 4 PCI lanes and is working 100%, so not sure what is going on. Ultra Core 7 256K processor on MSI Gaming Plus Wifi Z890
