D-mn bate and switch tactics used by some manufacturers! The should be ashame of themselves. Kingston is up to the same disgusting tactics with its new 'NV2-drive. I have seen performance results differ from 3000-5000 for the read part of it. They refuse to publish the insides stating that it will follow the PCIe ver4X4 standards (which say nothing, especially since it sometimes clocks down below ver3 speeds). We should just avoid these cheapest drives which don't are open about the innards of the drives...

To be fair the sn570 can now be found in 2 TB. And I know it does not have dram cache however, for the average user the thing is still blistering fast. When comparing this to a Gen 4 m.2 with game load times I could not tell the difference with the Gen 4 m.2 being faster only by a few milliseconds.

6:03 thats the actual TLC NAND write speed(one of the most important spec you should look for when buying a pcie nvme ssd) it happens when the slc cache fills up it will rise up again once the slc cache becomes empty. Recently Western digital was caught swapping their TLCs in the new revision of SN550 with slower TLC like TLC write speeds of 390mbps before it was in 500mbps i think, luckitly i got the old revision ;) .

This is a good drive for the average user. I think it would be worth mentioning that sustained write speeds will only matter if you are moving large files to another SSD that is at least as fast. For downloading games you would need to have at least like 5 gigabit internet for the sustained write speed to start holding you back.

I think I paid £60 for my 1TB Western Digital WDS100 on a M2 format, its not the fastest SSD out of the box but boy did it turn my Ryzen 5 system from a slowcoach to almost instant boot, 47 secs from power on to all apps loaded and ready to go and gameplay is just astonishing.

Honestly 550-600 MB/s is still overkill for pretty much all end user applications and plenty to avoid bottlenecks in most productivity workloads. Unless you for some reason regularly transfer huge files from one NVMe SSD to another or do the same via thunderbolt it barely makes any difference. And even then, let's say you end up with a 100GB RAW video file or huge project file, that's still only gonna take around 3 minutes.

I'm not sure there really is a market for a 2TB version. I have just checked a UK supplier, they only have the Blue 550 and Black 750 listed but the Blue is £200 and the Black is £228. Assuming the price ratio/differences would be the same with the newer drives, who if they wanted a 2TB NVME would skimp and buy the Blue?

Finally a channel that make reviews in EURs and Dollars, normally we watch reviews in dollars only to find out that the same product in EURs cost 3 times more. I m a fan already, well done.

I had super slow steam downloads and couldnt explain why. And I have fast internet (800mbps).Regularly dropping to literally 0 B/S where it would basically not move and the game that should be downloaded in 10 minutes literally took over an hour. So I thought maybe its problem on steam end but then when I was constantly getting this super slow downloads it had to be something else. So I tried to download the very same game on my main disc instead (which is kingston kc300 where also my os is) and it work fine and it was consistent without randomly droping to 0b/s where it literally doesnt move. So I realised its due to the WD Blue SN570 disc. My main disc is getting full hence I install rest of my games on the secondary WD Blue SN570 but this is super annoying so Ill probably sell the SN570 and get samsung 980 instead which is for similiar price anyway but it has more consistent speeds.

In terms of TBW and read speed, this is still very great deal for gaming dedicated nvme SSD.

i'm kinda glad all the hardware tech companies went ballz-to-the-wallz with ip=>product heading into chip shortage, it gave them an economic motivation to continue to take risks. I think we can mostly thank tsmc for that, but fabs have also stepped up to work on bleeding edge performance, economy, and scale. When availability is no longer an issue and some of this burgeoning tech is matured it will be a different landscape, to be sure.

I personally got myself a couple months back, 2x 2TB Kingston KC2500’s for a little less then the price of one, on sale here in Australia 🇦🇺.

It's a very important question! I talk about this often, but not in every video: SSDs under 1TB always perform worse, typically in write performance. 1TB is usually where performance levels out (and 2 TB SSDs usually perform about the same as 1 TB versions of the same model.) My advice: Settle for 500GB if that's all you need, 250GB is rarely worth it (lower performance even, bad price/gigabyte). But 1 TB & 2TB is where you reach the best balance of performance and value today.

so if i can get this or the Samsung 980 at almost the same price, i should go for the Samsung 980

Thank you so much for this wonderful review, though my question is that if I want to use it as my macOS boot drive in an enclosure on my iMac late 2013, can this nvme live all day tasks or would it die in the afternoon? Do I have a better option in the same budget, keeping in mind my old iMac?

That's a fairly specific setup, it's hard to say how much it will matter and it depends on your workflow. Any large writes to the nas should probably still be affected negatively. If it works fine, I'd say leave it, if you run into issues with transfer speeds, a 980 Pro would be a good choice.

4TB really limits your choices, and most Gen3 drives (like the SN 750) are "ok" but not amazing, while others are QLC and imho not suitable for pro use because of that.. If you can afford it, I'd probably say Firecuda 530 or Kingston KC3000 (or Fury Renegade, same SSD different look). Corsair MP600 Pro XT might be good too (but I haven't tested it yet). Those are Gen4, but those are really solid performers overall and will easily travel with you to a future PC upgrade. If you don't plan to upgrade to gen 4 platforms any time soon, probably the Corsair MP510 or SN750 then.

Would you recommend the WD Blue SN570 or Crucial P3 as a replacement for a Samsung 960 Evo in a laptop as it's only drive? It's not the newest laptop so I don't want to overspend, but I also don't want to slow it down unnecessarily.

07:13 No, speed drops because the cache memory built inside the SSD gets filled at first 4-5 seconds. Cache memory has very high speed of RW speeds. But after filling it, it just gets busy in offloading the data into actual NVME storage. So, technically, when cache fills, SSD speed gets limited to SATA speed which is that of the NVME media. And that's why WD is guilty of advertising false RW speeds as we should get that speed throughout the complete data transfers; at least for 5gb of data transfers. Then thats what is called as the promised speed.

Can you suggest me what to buy WD blue and 570 or crucial P3??

Is it an upgrade over the Intel's 660p series? Has anyone here changed from Intel 660p to this WD Sn570?

I know it's a year ago but it's still good for gaming online gaming and offline? I only do gaming for 3 to 4 hours is still Good?

I ordered this one for my laptop. I hope that this ssd will be still chilly without radiator.

I've had too many of these fail on me. One just yesterday. Not sure why. Most WD products are pretty good.

Can I install this one on the AsRock AB350 Pro4 motherboard?

Which one you prefer samsung 870 vs wd sn570

still rocking a last gen SN550. Solid speed & Endurance for the money. Chances are, with the realease of this newer SN570, the 550 might be put on sales, which is highly recommendable

good to know that for gaming it's not an issue

SN570 is faster in most tasks, except when you write lots of data (15GB+) at high speeds often.

Will it help if I put thermal pads with a heat sink ? Currently it runs at about 48deg and on full load it is 55deg.

You can, but 55 C is pretty far from throttling so there isn't much point.

How bad is DRAM-less ssd? If it does not impact the game performance, I might get one
