WD's new in-house NVMe controller is a big win, but cheaper emerging products leave the Black 3D NVMe SSD with poor pricing at launch. It's like seeing an iceberg on the horizon. Hopefully WD can maneuver the ship in time.Review$449.99 MSRP...
Abstract: It is not often that we review two separate SSDs within the same report, however this is a rather unique opportunity. Back in 2016, Western Digital acquired SanDisk in one of the largest flash memory purchases ever; a very rare occasion for a company to a...

At the beginning of our review, we said we would tell you why you need one of these SSDs. After reading through everything so far, we're pretty sure that we don't need to. The new WD Black and SanDisk Extreme Pro are some of the best SSDs out. They are bu...
Top-notch performance, Priced more like a budget NVMe SSD than a premium model, Five-year warranty
Boring label, Easy to confuse with an older WD Black SSD that was also M.2/NVMe
The Western Digital Black 3D NVMe SSD is as fast as Samsung's 960 Pro, but it costs a lot less. In fact, it's only slightly more expensive than entry-level drives. It's the drive that smart buyers should go for...
3400 MB/s read, 2800 MB/s write speeds, No overheating issues, Single-sided for better compatibility, Developed completely in-house by WD

Overall, it outperforms the Intel 600P, but not by much. With the WD Black PCIe at its current prices of $109.99 (256GB) and $199.99 (512GB), the Intel may be a better buy for someone looking to get the cheapest NVMe SSD they can get their hands on or if...

There are still relatively few PCIe SSDs using TLC NAND, and the WD Black is the only one using planar TLC NAND. SanDisk has lately made some of the best planar TLC NAND SSDs with highly effective SLC caching that somewhat insulates them from many of the...
The WD Black PCIe SSD series was designed to be an affordable SSD that unlocks a new level of performance for PC users that have PCIe NVMe compatible systems. The performance numbers we were seeing from this SSD would place it in the entry-level NVMe SSD...
Poor performance in general across all benchmarks, Priced too high compared to the performance it gives
The WD Black PCIe SSD is an M.2 NVMe drive that lacks both performance and competitive pricing in a highly competitive market.WD Black PCIe SSD on Amazon...
Abstract: The WD Black SSD offers NVMe storage speed for a bargain price. It introduces SanDisk's 3D NAND into its consumer SSD range and pairs it up with an in-house memory controller. Solid state storage is a tough market at the moment, with Samsung largely rulin...
