WD Blue SN550 1TB NVMe SSD review 4

Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/23/2020 08:43 AM [ 17 comment(s) ]

With a rather properly volume sized 1024 GB (1 TB) size, we check out the SN550 froM Western Digital. The all Sandisk based product is plenty fast  for any modern age PC or laptop.

But you have the Sandisk equivalence for less money... and for the WD price you have the upper version from Sandisk too (even the software is the same)

Nowhere near "109" in Europe.

One dubious seller with £ 105 ( ~ € 120 ), but the larger retailers sell this at € 135-140.

Even with VAT of 21%, it should be only € 120, not 140 !

NAND prices fluctuate quite a bit at the moment, right now it is 119 USD in the WD store and indeed when you look around a bit, roughly 120~130 EUR at some places.

I don't know where, but not in our country for sure !

Starts at 141 :(

I'm actually interested in getting a decently fast NVME drive, as currently I have an old Samsung 850 (SATA), 500 GB, and today's games are eating it up instantly... I can basically keep 4-5 games max on it until I'm completely out of space.

Perhaps it will drop a bit soon...
