WD_BLACK 1TB SN770 NVMe Internal Gaming SSD Solid State Drive - Gen4 PCIe, M.2 2280, Up to 5,150 MB/s - WDS100T3X0E - [Previous Generation]

I purchased the WD_BLACK 1TB SN770 NVMe SSD to upgrade the storage in my HP Victus, and it has exceeded expectations. Installation was simple, and the drive was immediately recognized with no compatibility issues. I was able to restore my system to it quickly and painlessly. The size is great for the cost.The performance is exactly what I was looking for—fast boot times, quick file transfers, and snappy overall system responsiveness. With read speeds up to 5,150 MB/s, this Gen4 drive delivers more than enough speed for both gaming and productivity tasks. Everything runs smoother now, especially large game loads and multitasking.There have been zero issues since installation, and the SSD stays cool under load. It’s also a great value considering the quality and performance you’re getting from a trusted brand like WD.

I purchased this to replace the SATA system drive in my 6 yr old PC. The system had progressively gotten slower and the boot and load time was close to 10 minutes or more (sure it posts faster than that but by the time it loaded Windows and I get to a working Desktop it was painfully slow).I used Acronis True Image to back up and restore the original partitions, including the hidden system partition. Created the back up night before and then restored to new SSD next day. Took maybe 3 hours total.My boot time is now about to 1 minute.

Me encantó el disco duro ya llevo 3 anos utilizándolo dándole todo tipo de usos y hasta ahora no me ha dado ningún problema

buen SSD, lo he usado mas de 4 años y sigue funcionando muy bien

This SSD completely transformed my PC! The speed improvement is insane compared to my old hard drive. Boot times are almost instant, games load significantly faster, and file transfers are lightning quick. If you're upgrading from a traditional HDD or even an older SATA SSD, the difference is night and day.Compatibility & FitBefore purchasing, make sure your motherboard supports NVMe SSDs. This drive is PCIe Gen4, but it also works with PCIe Gen3 systems (though at slightly lower speeds). I installed it in a Gen3 slot, and it still ran way faster than my previous SSD. Fits perfectly in my M.2 slot, but just a reminder—it does NOT come with a mounting screw, so check if your motherboard already has one.✔ Works great on PCIe Gen3 and Gen4 systems.✔ Slim & compact M.2 form factor – perfect fit!✔ Compatible with most modern motherboards & laptops.✖ Does NOT come with a mounting screw—have one ready!Format CapabilityOut of the box, it needs to be formatted before use. If you're installing it as a secondary drive, go to Disk Management (Windows) or Disk Utility (Mac) to initialize and format it. If you're using it for a fresh OS install, it works great once formatted through the installer. No issues detected!Final Thoughts – Perfect for Any PC Upgrade!If you're looking for a fast, reliable, and easy-to-install SSD, this is one of the best options out there. Whether you're gaming, editing, or just need a blazing-fast system, this drive is worth every penny! Just remember to check compatibility, get a mounting screw if needed, and format it before use!

So, I bought two of these at the time, one of them is still going strong, no problems what so ever, the other one however had an issue. Now I ended up having to get a new motherboard so I think the broken one was caused by the motherboard and not the drive itself. (However the SMART data did show some errors and such but again probably caused by the board shorting rather than the drive itself)Both drives worked fast, good cost, more or less plug and play. It's just a shame that my motherboard fried one of them. Because I'm not sure if the M.2 fried the board or if the board fried the drive I gave it a 4 instead of a 5.

This was to put on an enclosure for my brother's laptop and is hella fast, very recommended. I will definitely consider buying one for myself in the future. Transfering files, loading games, or any task you do with this SSD will be really fast

Really good quality and does the job. I didn't have any difficulty installing it.
