Moderately priced for a PCIe 4,0 drive, Matched its rated sequential read and write speeds in our testing, Strong performance in overall storage and some trace tests
No 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption, No heat dissipation hardware included
The WD Black SN770 is a nice-priced PCIe 4.0 NVMe internal SSD that aced many of our benchmarks, especially for program loading and file copy. Our only quibbles? Hardware-based encryption and a snap-on heat spreader would complete this package...

Fast performance and cool operation, Competitive pricing, Aesthetics, 5-year warranty,
Slow write speed after write cache fills, Lacks AES hardware encryption, Not available in 4TB

Typically, we are fortunate to be able to conduct our SSD reviews without interruption and void of outside interference and influence. Simply put, I don't want any outside opinion affecting my own and it is a two sided coin. For one, it gets hard to avoid...
No 4TB option, Not suitable for PS5, No hardware encryption
The first important thing to understand about the SN770 is that it replaces the ageing SN750, a Gen 3 drive that peaked at reading speeds of 3,400MB/s and writes of 3,100MB/s.In comparison, the SN770 is a dramatically better proposition, even for those st...

Overall performance, 5-year warranty,
Couldn’t match the official maximum 4K random write figures in some of our testing,
