Western Digital 1TB WD Blue SN580 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive SSD - Gen4 x4 PCIe 16Gb/s, M.2 2280, Up to 4,150 MB/s - WDS100T3B0E

Upon purchasing a new iMac, I realized I needed more storage to meet my needs. There are many SSD configurations that satisfy that need. This card was easy to install in the hub I had to purchase to accommodate my older USB accessories. The drive came formatted FAT, so in order to make it readable in Mac OS, you have to reformat it to APFS. It is a simple process and once formatted, it has worked flawlessly. It is very reasonably priced. I have no complaints about its read/write speed. It is much better than the old hard drives--I have not noticed any latency issues when editing video.

Fast, Reliable, and MacBook Pro CompatibleI’ve been using the WD Blue SN580 2TB NVMe for a few weeks now, and it’s been excellent. The read and write speeds are impressive—noticeably faster than my previous SSD.What really surprised me was how well it works with my 2015 MacBook Pro (using an NVMe adapter). No issues at all, and the system recognizes the drive without any fuss. Perfect upgrade if you're looking to breathe new life into an older Mac.Highly recommend for both performance and compatibility.

So I added this 2 TB SSD to my iMac 27" 2017 which was having very slow boot-up times. After a clean install of the operating system my iMac boots up almost instantly! Like a new machine! Make sure you see if you need an adapter which I did and also ordered that from Amazon. It takes some time to install as you pretty much have to take apart the entire machine to get to the mother board. But well worth the effort! A great value as well as for about $140 my old iMac has a new lease on life! Couldn't be more pleased!!

Excelente, funcionó sin problema

I changed from film to digital photography when the medium was viable commercially in the early 2000’s. I save files accessing them sometimes years later for projects. Western Digital archive is all I use. I purchased Western Digital 4TB WD Blue SN5000 NVMe Internal Solid State Drive

worked like a champt! Chose the blue over black or Samsung based on the price difference ($40), there is a speed/performance hit. However the speed of the blue meets / exceeds the OEM installed M2 for my laptop resulting in no negative performance.

I bought this specifically for an external SSD enclosure to use with my smartphone.- 1TB which I formatted using exFAT, resulting in 931.5 GB free space.- NAND require less power draw- Fast enough for short bursts of storage to/fromYou get the SSD. That's it. It does not come with screws or any other hardware. It works right out of the box. For my needs it still gets the job done even though it pulls about 6W, and my USB can only send about 5W. In my case, in order to be reliable I need to use the 60W PD port on the side of the enclosure as well. I can live with that, since I often carry power banks with me.Would buy again. Great value for 1TB at only 50 bucks!

Using this as a secondary SSD for backup & storage. My Gaming PC has a 4TB SSD and a 10TB HDD. I got tired of hearing the HDD spool up every so often so this is the solution. Take out the 10TB HDD to make it an external drive then add in this 4TB SSD for the onboard secondary SSD backup & storage solution. I did a lot of reading before making this decision. If you are a gamer with a high end video card be sure you motherboard supports this. Some boards the GPU & secondary SSD share the same Bus so it could cut your performance in half. Luckily my MSI Gaming motherboard does not have that issue so the Western Digital SN5000 WD Blue 4TB SSD will work perfectly for my use case. Good luck.
