Western Digital 1TB WD Red SA500 NAS 3D NAND Internal SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s, 2.5/7mm, Up to 560 MB/s - WDS100T1R0A

Pedí esta memoría luego de darme cuenta que mi laptop tenía una ranura para SSD. El hecho es que según soporte solo podía ponerle 256, según un amigo que también es soporte de otro lado, podía aguantar más. La recomendación es ver si tienen si la maquina tiene el tornillo para esta tarjeta, es uno pequeño, en el caso de ASUS, no lo incluye (craso error), tampoco viene incluido en el disco, recomendaría que si alguien va a comprar esta ssd, también pida los tornillos de ser posible. Volviendo al tema, la conecte y en el administrador de dispositivos aparecía, pero no la unidad, probablemente para los que somos empiricos (y no técnicos) de computadores, se nos haga un mundo el pensar que no funciona con tu pc. Lo que se hace es inicializar el disco en el panel de control, en caso de que quieras instalar windows ahí GPT. Luego de eso, sabrás que la corta espera y pedir este disco ssd es la mejor inversión que habrás hecho en buen tiempo. Para ser mi primera compra, me ha ido genial.

I am flabbergasted that the card doesnt include the screws. I tried some other screws from an older hard drive. Nope, too big. Cmon Western Digital, dont be so cheap.

This drive died just a few months after I installed it. Fortunately, I kept a second boot drive so it was relatively easy to recover, but the sudden, quick collapse of this drive renders it, in my estimation, useless.

Good value

The WD produce good fair products, what Yoo get and what You pay, in my opinion, their products are overpriced, I was thinking to buy the 4TB but almost 500$ each I then switch to 2TB. In the NAS this two HD will store the most frequent used files. but when You dont want to compromise reliability, especially if You use for a NAS, the price became the last of the priority. Its too short time to comment about durability, they are guarantee 5 years of 24/7 working time. I shall be allowed to comment about it after three years (at list). But in matter of actual performance the two pair SSD are doing their job, not much eat, remain about 35°C in an enviroment of 25°C. eating less than conventional HD. For a laptop or desk top, to replace a traditional mechanical HD, if Your data is important, this is expensive but worth to have. If You are not in hurry, I suggest You to wait to see 4TB price drop significantly when theyll introduce the 8TB SSD type.

Exactly what you would expect from a WD nvme drive. Hoping the red line has great always on longevity as this is now the OS drive in a home server.

Does the job as expected

They were an easy replacement for my 4TB Seagate QNAP NAS drives. Ive had 4 of these SSDs running in my TVS-471 for 3 months and they are fast, reliable and silent! I know they are expensive compared with Hard Disks, but the additional speed and silent operation makes them worth it. Using MKV for movie transfers to my NAS are much faster and Plex is less likely to transcode to a lower resolution. 4K movies are delivered cleanly to my various Samsung and LG big screens. I also upgraded my QNAP from an i5 to an i7 and added two M.2 1Tb drives for caching.

working fine for monument 2, sata 3 (not nvme) m.2 storage. -1 star for value for money vs. nvme m.2

All good, no issues. Migrated my boot partition to it, and now my old PC just flies.
