Works as intended.
Installed no issues. Speed is strong, although I have a 3.0 compatible motherboard the backwards compatibility allows it to still function.Will update review whenever I have issues with the drive. So far so good.Note: It did only have 1.81 gb free but I never found a drive that gives you the full amount of storage on it’s title; so I don’t really care.

Working Good and Easy Install
Installed this in my PS5 and it was simple. You take the plates off, unscrew the main screw, and you install the SSD. This was smaller than what I expected compared to my Samsung SSD in my other PS5, but this one is doing the charm for my Wife’s console. This is a good value if you can get a sale price, and would recommend. However, the SSD read speed is slower by like 300mbps when the PS5 finishes its install.

Great SSD, but Not Compatible with the Kwumsy K3 Dock â ï¸ð»
The WD_BLACK 1TB SN850X NVMe Internal Gaming SSD is a top-tier Gen4 PCIe solid-state drive, delivering lightning-fast speeds and exceptional performance for gaming and multitasking. However, if youâre planning to use it with a Kwumsy K3 keyboard dock, be aware that this SSD isnât compatible, as the M.2 slot in the dock requires a specific size or configuration.What makes the SN850X great:Blazing-fast performance: With Gen4 PCIe technology, the SN850X offers up to 7,300MB/s read speeds, ensuring lightning-fast load times for games and applications. Itâs a beast for high-performance PCs and gaming rigs. â¡ð®Reliable storage: At 1TB, it provides ample space for large games, files, and programs while maintaining exceptional reliability and efficiency. ðï¸ðGaming-focused features: Optimized for gaming, the SN850X includes features like a low-latency mode for smoother gameplay and faster response times, making it ideal for gamers who demand peak performance. ð¯ð¥The issue with the Kwumsy K3: Unfortunately, while the Kwumsy K3 keyboard dock offers an M.2 slot, its size or power delivery isnât compatible with the SN850X. Always double-check the size and type of the M.2 SSD slot (e.g., NVMe vs. SATA, 2230 vs. 2280 size) before purchasing an SSD for devices like docks or compact enclosures. ðð»Bottom line: The WD_BLACK SN850X 1TB SSD is an outstanding choice for gamers and PC builders, but itâs not suitable for the Kwumsy K3 keyboard dock due to compatibility issues. Make sure to confirm the requirements of your device before purchasing to avoid compatibility hiccups. ð»â¡â

Easy to install. Works perfectly.
Very easy to install and it was ready to use within minutes of turning my PS5 back on. Well worth the price. My only regret is probably going to be not getting the larger storage size.

Cool Performance with Lightning Speed
I got the WD_BLACK 1TB SN850X NVMe SSD with Heatsink because my old SSD was overheating and messing with my laptopâs Wi-Fi receiver. Best decision ever! This drive runs cool, thanks to the built-in heatsink, and installs easily. The speed is insaneâgames load in seconds, and everything feels faster. No more lag, no more overheating, and no more Wi-Fi interference! 5/5 â itâs like a turbo boost for your laptop, with a side of chill.

Depois de instalar, diferente de outros que comprei, precisa iniciar no controlador de memória. Não detecta automaticamente, fora isso é ótimo.
