A wrest quality drive.

Super fast
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super fast start up time and super fast load times for games. I have this for my gaming system and it was expensive but my happiness is priceless. Great for a boot drive. HDD and SDD are outdated. These are the future.

Very fast, like REALLY fast, comparable to Samsung
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Much faster than my previous budget Inland 250gb NVMe SSD that I got from Amazon. My system feels noticeably "snappier" when opening applications and files (mostly Adobe Creative Cloud apps and files). I bought this because my 250gb wasn't cutting in terms of space for all my design and development programs. And all the Adobe apps started complaining about running out of space for scratch disks. I could've just bought a regular Sata SSD for a scratch disk, but NVMe's are now very affordable. This one is very comparable to the Samsung 960, cheaper in price and just ever so slightly slower. But seriously look at my screenshot. It still blazing fast. Running a Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.7, 16gb 2133 (oc to 2933), GA-AB350M-DS3H mobo with latest BIOS update.

work perfect
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comparable to an ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro. I had a SX8200 non-pro and it failed after ~2.5 years, instead of getting the Pro I switched brands. Only had it for a couple weeks but I've been pretty happy with it so far.

Excellent SSD
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I observed some high disk activity around the times I experienced some frame drops while running some games. I looked into replacing my SSD, and this was on sale. This SSD has solved the specific frame dropping issue I had been experiencing.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionI was told when I bought this that I would need a power cable for the card. What cable would I need and where can I find it?
Asked by Luka.
- A:Answer What are you smoking. No cables needed my guy.

Q: QuestionWill this work in a desktop?
Asked by Kryptonix.
- A:Answer Yes! I use it as a boot drive. I have both the Samsung and the Western digital on my Asus TUF Gaming X570 mother board. I’ve bench marked both, and they both run at comparable speeds; both are super duper fast...way way faster than a standard HDD drive and quite a bit faster than a standard 2.5 inch solid state drive. I built my own desk top computer, and I decided I didn’t want any SATA drives and a lot of cables to hide and tuck away. My windows boot time with the Western Digital m.2 drive is fantastic...8 seconds or less. It would take my HDD drive 20 seconds to boot up and 40 to 50 seconds to shut down. Imagine! 8 seconds to boot up. When I double click on an icon to open a program, it just opens now. Opening internet explorer...double click, and its instantly open. It takes less than 15 seconds to defragment where as on the HDD it would take 3-5 minutes. Have fun with it. You likely won’t regret it. Also remember I have all new components...AMD Ryzen 7 3800X, GeForce RTX 2070 super, RAM is 3.2 ghz, and an ASUS TUF gaming X570 board which has two dedicated M.2 slots. I do game, and the M.2 hard drives make that a lot of fun.

Q: QuestionIs this model # WDBRPG5000ANC or WDS500G3X0C? Asking this because 1) As per WD official specifications, https://support-en.wd.com/app/products/product-detail/p/1534 only WDS500G3X0C is a valid model number & 2) Review images of BIOS show WDS500G3X0C
Asked by Macy.
- A:Answer Everything about those two model numbers seem to be the exact same. Just one only shows on 3rd party retailers while the 3X0C only on WD. From the box and firmware identification, mine was listed as the 3X0C number.

Q: QuestionI need to know fast. Will this act as additional storage and reboot times etc for my recently purchased ROG Strix G731 17.3" 16 gb RAM laptop?
Asked by brett.
- A:Answer I see that laptop already has an NVMe drive installed so you wouldn't see faster boot times (assuming it's the $2k model I see on Best Buy's website). Though you could still buy this and make it a new drive for additional storage.

Q: QuestionDoes this ssd come with a heatsink?
Asked by DeeJay.
- A:Answer I don’t think so. If you have a motherboard with a heat spreader, that will do just fine. Honestly, mine doesn’t get hot enough to really warrant one. My case fans also provide a bit of a breeze on it, which I think is enough cooling.

Q: QuestionI am trying to decide on a Power Supply, what is the current draw of this drive? WD - Black 1TB and WD - Black 500GB?
Asked by Webster1005.
- A:Answer The SN750 data can be found on this page. https://www.westerndigital.com/products/internal-drives/wd-black-sn750-nvme-ssd As with any piece of hardware, your power usage will have active and rest state averages. Notably, though, this drive isn't what's going to determine what power supply you should be using. It's minimal by comparison to a lot of other things going on. Your video card plays a much bigger variable in that question.
