WD_BLACK SN750 1TB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3 NVMe Gaming SSD up to 3430 MB/s read speed

Absolutely love the performance of this drive. I have it fitted in a PCIE adapter fitted within a dual-xeon server that has 144GB of RAM. The server is now10 years old, so pretty slow by today's standards, yet this thing allows me to host online technical training for half a dozen guys, with each of them accessing several Virtual machines simultaneously.I run up to 25 VMs simultaneously, with two thirds of them hosted on thissingle drive. The machines run absolutely beautifully from this drive, with six guys performing major software installation and configuration on 12 Windows server VM's simultaneously.There is just no slowdown with this thing, it absolutely rocks! I can literally start 16 VMs Simultaneously (mix of server 2016/2019, and SUSE Linux) from this SSD, and they are all quick to boot, and really responsive thereafter!I bought the PCIE BE version without heatsink, as my server only has. PCIE V3 bus, and I fitted a simple M.2 low-profile Aluminium finned heatsink myself, which instantly brought under-load temperatures down by 15 degrees. These heatsinks were about £8 for a pack of four from Amazon, complete with adhesive pads.

Very good quality ssd, the speed is very close to the specifications and it was easy to install. I tested it with an enclosure on a before installing it permanently as an upgrade for a MacBook pro retina early 2015 (A1502). It was very easy to format to apple’s format and I required an adaptor to plug it to the motherboard.Most people recommend the samsung ssd for apple but I used this one as it was a bit cheaper but similar specs. I couldn’t be more satisfied and hopefully this review will help anyone trying to figure out how to upgrade their MacBook.

I have added this as a secondary drive in an Asus laptop used for gaming, work related and everyday tasks such as photo editing etc. Seems to work flawlessly, obviously it's too early to vouch for reliability. Laptop is pretty much on 24/7 and only really goes off it not used for over a day or putting in bag to take somewhere, so is probably a good test for the drive. The drive has been absolutely fine. I found that when transferring around 400gb of files onto the drive the write speeds were very stable and does reach the quoted speeds, the machine is heavily used also. Lets come back to this in a year time and see how she performs. Based on the other SSD installed in the machine (Intel) no compatibility issues and Based on other SSD's I've come across I can't really fault it. Loading times on new games are rapid even on MS Flight Sim 2020.

I purchased this 1T SSD from Amazon with some concern intended to replace my 256 SSD of my Macbook Pro 2014. I used the adaptor https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08HPGZL8S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1and followed the instructions written in this adaptor. With careful movements, you can replace the disk and install again your Mac Os from an external USB disk. The WD 1T SSD is fantastic, with no signs of rising temperatures in demanding use (I read this was the case in a previous model of WD). At an excellent price, I think this is the best solution for your Macbook Pro, a real bargain. Very pleased.

Bought to allow more breathing space than the 256GB drive that came with my system, the PCIe Gen.3 SN750 1TB achieves sequential read/writes of around 3000MB/s as expected, along with random small file read/writes of 60MB/s.While the latter doesn't sound all that impressive, I have a 10TB WD Black internal mechanical S-ATA drive for archiving purposes, and that manages speeds of 196MB/s for sequential read/writes, and speeds of 4MB/s for random 4K read/writes.There are faster PCIe Gen4 NVME drives out on the market right now but, if your motherboard doesn't support that interface type, you'll be paying a premium for speeds that your PC won't be capable of.

I'm on the fence with this one at the moment! Been having some minor issues on my newbuild pc and i'm starting to think this is the cause of those issues so i have dropped a star for that reason. First of all it's fast that's expected from an nvme drive but nowhere near as fast as advertised. Easy to install and instantly set up and the wd dashboard is a handy little software tool to monitor it. I'm not entirely sure if i would recommend it until i narrow down the problem on my pc but i have ruled out pretty much everything else and my boot times recently where slower than my old samsung ssd! I reinstalled windows and those seem to be far better so that may have been a software issue but if it starts to drop in speed again i may consider getting a crucial or samsung nvme and using this as a non OS backup drive. Loading software on the desktop is fine although windows explorer isn't that fast however that could just be a windows bug. Overall it's fine for the price but may be the cause of some minimal desktop stutter i've had recently.

I bought this NVMe to add to my gaming system which was using a 128GB SSD from years ago. There is a massive change to the speed. Windows 10 now boots up in literally 4 seconds, if that. The post screen is up for longer than the boot process!Windows 10 detects it and installs the drivers when installing too, which is excellent.Gaming; well, I am the 1st to load into a game area and wait for the others. Everything is so much faster! I was going to purchase one of the competitor NVMe's but went for the WD one as a "punt". Glad I did. I bought the 2019 version.
