Customer reviews
Write a reviewStores My Gaming Library - I live the drive. It was very easy to install and it loads my games very quickly.
great storage solution - great storage, western didgital is premuim so im glad i purchased this before prices spiked. But its great for my library of steam games
I got lucky!!! - This drive is massive and light-speed fast. When I bought this in Dec 2024, I was skeptical due to the price but now that the price has nearly tripled, I know I made the right choice when I pulled the trigger and made my purchase.
Worked for 8 months - S.M.A.R.T code popped up and is stuck in read only, thankfully the self protection in the drive made it so im able to back up any data on the drive but failing after only 11TB writes and 28TB reads is pretty annoying. Worked great while it was usable
Works flawlessly - Installed in a OWC Express 1M2 enclosure attached to my M4 MacBook Pro . Working perfectly so far.
Beast of an nvme!!! - I love the amount of storage on this nvme!!! I can finally install my entire Steam library! I love how fast I can install and move around files as well. I recommend if you need a lot of storage without breaking the bank buying a gen 5 nvme that is overkill for gaming. I highly recommend!
Smoking fast - This thing is screaming fast. Dropped it in a PS5 and can't notice a difference between games on internal memory vs on this guy.
Nice upgrade for my M4 Mac Studio Max - Works as expected in an owc thunderbolt 5 enclosure for my m4 Mac Studio Max
I should’ve done this a long time ago - Switched from HDD to NVME and it gave my computer a longer lifespan in usage especially with 8TB of storage. This purchase was the best thing I could’ve done as a music producer, photographer, and videographer.
One of the best Large SSD's on a Budget! - Fast as a Cheetah, reliable as oak. Great product with speedy delivery.
Really good - It’s a bit overkill, and there’s not much difference in performance for most tasks, but it’s currently one of the top storage solutions available, with the added benefit of a very large capacity.
great purchase - It has so much storage space! I'm glad I purchased this.
Smooth Upgrade - 4× 8TB WD Black in RAID 0 - Upgraded from a 4×4TB Crucial MX500 RAID 0 array (which was solid in its own right) to four 8TB WD Black SN850s in a RAID 0 configuration for a 32TB setup. The goal was to move away from SATA III bottlenecks—and mission accomplished. Load times are noticeably faster, and shader caching is instant across all titles. No stuttering before, but now everything feels even more seamless and snappy. Setup was clean, drives run cool, and the capacity bump is a huge win. If you're transitioning from SATA to NVMe for gaming installs and live play, this setup delivers real-world gains without compromise.
Go Big with the SN850X 8TB - SN850X performs well. I was considering a gen 5, but after reviewing the overall average speed, I felt a 8TB gen 4 was better value than a 4TB Gen 5. Yaay, with 8TB of storage, there is no longer a need to content back and forth between HDD and SDD to manage space!
DO NOT BUY - I purchased 3 of these drives and 1 has failed already. Sandisk/WD has made it difficult to even register these drives for RMA. I work in IT and it is unacceptable that an NVME drive fails after less than 90 days.
Great purchase - This NVMe was installed in an Acasis Thunderbolt 5 enclosure attached to a Mac Studio M4 Max. It runs at around 6,000mbps without any issues. A great alternative to the costly storage feed Apple charges, and no doubt would also perform well in a PC enclosure. Highly recommended.
M,2 ssd drive. - Came on time looks to be intact no damage. I will be using it soon.
I Got One! - Product always selling out. Picked it up and see label showing 8TB. Need to test the drive to see if it is legitimate in size and speed.
Amazing dribe - Large storage capacity, fast. Installed in a Lenovo legion with a 4090. Space was tight, but no issues.
