SN750 500GB NVMe M.2 Black

I have had this installed in 2 different PC'S now for almost a year (a laptop and desktop) and although it's not for gaming purposes, it is forced intensive business use. The desktop is used for a sign business who creates graphical intensive products daily. Along with an 11th gen i5 6 core Intel and 40GB of DDR4 Ram, there's no stopping this machine. I have used Samsung devices like this and WD software is much better quality than the Magician software in my opinion.

This M.2 drive is a great price for great performance. I currently have it installed in an Asus Vivobook X512D laptop, and it's running quite well. I plan to build a full system eventually, but for now the drive speeds up boot times and provides for a smooth fast operation. Love this product!

This was my first time buying NVMe SSD drives and I was deciding between this WD Black SN750 and the Samsung 970 EVO. Both drives have similar specs and I ended up going for the WD Black SN750. This drive is amazingly quick compared to what I'm used to and I'm happy with it so far. The specs of this drive are: read speeds of 3430 MB/s and write speeds of 2600 MB/s. To get these speeds your M.2 slot needs to be PCIe x4. One of my desktops has a PCIe x2 M.2 slot so I was not able to get the full speeds on that computer. Windows 10 boots up super quick and I have not noticed any lag when performing any tasks. I would suggest downloading the free WD Black SSD Dashboard software to use with this SSD. The Dashboard lets you monitor your drive and also contains some additional tools. I did notice that the drive runs a little warmer compared to other SSDs that I have used. I'm seeing an average temperature of 45 degrees Celsius during daily use, which is not excessive and might be normal for this type of drive. I may try a heat sink at some point to see if that helps to bring the temperatures down. Another thing to note is that this M.2 SSD like most others does not come with a screw to secure the SSD to the motherboard. I would definitely recommend this SSD if you are looking to upgrade your desktop or laptop computer.

We have purchased several of these (I believe 5 total) WD_Black SN750s for new builds and to speed up old computers. All of them have worked well, been trouble free, and have helped to create fast, responsive computers.

just what i ordered. came fast building a new machine.

Works great right out of the box! Great replcament SSD

Almost as fast as a 970plus, but does not need a heat sink for normal workloads

Installed very easily and works great! Transfer rate is great with this little thing.

excellent product. incredibly made and came in time.

Installation was easy, simply install the drive in the m.2 slot, and secure it with the screw that's included. The [up to] read/write speeds of 3470MB/s are as advertised, I average around 3400MB/s for the read speed, and 2500MB/s for the write speed when benchmarking with CrystalDiskMark. It would of been a nice gesture to add the heatsink by default, although the temperatures are average for an NVMe m.2 SSD. Using the drive as my OS drive the idle temp is ~37c in my mid tower sized case with gaming mode enabled on the Western Digital dashboard. There's no extra bells and whistles, or anything that would make you say "wow" but I can't come up with any valid unique reasons to not purchase this SSD.
