    Really good

    It’s a bit overkill, and there’s not much difference in performance for most tasks, but it’s currently one of the top storage solutions available, with the added benefit of a very large capacity.

    Works flawlessly

    Installed in a OWC Express 1M2 enclosure attached to my M4 MacBook Pro . Working perfectly so far.

    Worked for 8 months

    S.M.A.R.T code popped up and is stuck in read only, thankfully the self protection in the drive made it so im able to back up any data on the drive but failing after only 11TB writes and 28TB reads is pretty annoying. Worked great while it was usable

    Smooth Upgrade - 4× 8TB WD Black in RAID 0

    Upgraded from a 4×4TB Crucial MX500 RAID 0 array (which was solid in its own right) to four 8TB WD Black SN850s in a RAID 0 configuration for a 32TB setup. The goal was to move away from SATA III bottlenecks—and mission accomplished. Load times are noticeably faster, and shader caching is instant across all titles. No stuttering before, but now everything feels even more seamless and snappy. Setup was clean, drives run cool, and the capacity bump is a huge win. If you're transitioning from SATA to NVMe for gaming installs and live play, this setup delivers real-world gains without compromise.

    Beast of an nvme!!!

    I love the amount of storage on this nvme!!! I can finally install my entire Steam library! I love how fast I can install and move around files as well. I recommend if you need a lot of storage without breaking the bank buying a gen 5 nvme that is overkill for gaming. I highly recommend!
