Paired with an Enclosure its faster than an Off-The-Shelf External SSD

Paired with an Enclosure its faster than an Off-The-Shelf External SSD
I'm using this WD NVMe SN580 2TB to make an external SSD - paired with an Enclosure from UnionSine - model MD202. My iMac is late 2015 27inch and only has USB 3.0 ports. When I run a disk test I see solid speeds close to the 0.5 GB/s max for USB 3.0 - See screenshot. The NVMe was 80% full.For comparison, I show the speed of a Samsung T7 1TB ( 65% full) on the same USB3.0 port. Speed for the off-the-shelf Samsung T7 SSD is shown to be slower across the board. Once I move up to a faster mac with higher speed USB ports I expect this NVMe to shine even more with a suitable enclosure.

I recently bought this SSD hard drive, and I have been incredibly impressed with its performance. This hard drive has exceeded my expectations in terms of speed, reliability, and overall quality.

First and foremost, the SSD hard drive has dramatically improved the speed of my computer. Starting up the PC and opening applications takes a fraction of the time it used to with my old hard drive. The read and write speeds are incredibly fast, and I have noticed a significant improvement in the speed of my day-to-day work.

Additionally, the SSD hard drive is incredibly reliable. It's built to last, and I haven't had any issues with data loss or corruption. This reliability is crucial for me as I store important files on my hard drive, and I can't afford to lose them due to a hard drive malfunction.

The overall quality of the SSD hard drive is also impressive. It's solidly built, and the design is sleek and modern. It looks fantastic in my setup, and the compact size means that it doesn't take up much space on my desk.

Finally, I want to mention how easy it was to install. It was a straightforward process, and I had it up and running in no time. The user-friendly installation software made the process even simpler.

Overall, I would highly recommend this SSD hard drive to anyone looking to improve the performance and reliability of their computer. Its impressive speed, reliability, and overall quality make it an excellent choice for anyone looking for a high-performance hard drive that will stand the test of time.

Bought the 2TB Nvme version to install into my gaming laptop as I had a spare Nvme slot.
Very easy to install these little drives & you don't really require any IT skills to do so... Just make sure to earth yourself so as to discharge any static electricity that may have built up in you before handling components such as these & you'll be fine ;)
This WD Blue Nvme does everything it's claimed & has been performing without issues for about a month after installing it.
Average read/ write speeds with tests resulted in it matching it's advertised speeds.
So once everything is factored in I think I made a wise choice, having chosen it to be a 2nd HD in a gaming laptop for storage of games from Steam, Origin & UPlay etc...
It's cheaper than the Corsair or Crucial alternatives & I would think as reliable if not more so than those 2 aforementioned competitors & their more expensive options available from them.
I've bought many a Western Digital hard drive over my many yrs of PC use be it gaming or business & TBH I can't recall ever having 1 WD die on me unlike many other brands namely Seagates.
So to sum up ;
Pros : Decent speeds reads & writes, built well (as all WD drives usually are) & by far the best Pro is it's cheap price !
Cons : Won't break any read or write speed tests if I'm being ultra ultra picky but I knew this going into the purchase so perhaps I'm being too harsh saying this is a Con but thought I'd try at least put in 1 thing in the Con section ;)

Best 2TB decent quality bang per buck NVme currently available IMHO ;)

5.0 out of 5 stars Speed and Reliability with the Western Digital SSD

Colour Name: BlueSize Name: 2TBStyle Name: SN570 - Upto 3,500MB/sVerified Purchase
As a DIY enthusiast, upgrading to the Western Digital 2TB WD Blue SN570 NVMe SSD has been a game-changer for my system. The installation process was straightforward, thanks to the M.2 2280 form factor, which fit perfectly into my motherboard.

One of the most impressive features of this SSD is its speed. With read speeds of up to 3,500 MB/s, my system boots up almost instantly, and large file transfers happen in a blink. This drive has drastically improved the overall responsiveness of my computer, making multitasking and running heavy applications a breeze.

The 2TB capacity provides ample space for all my data, applications, and games, which is essential for someone who likes to keep everything on their main drive. The Gen3 x4 PCIe interface ensures that the SSD operates at its peak performance, making full use of the available bandwidth.

A small downside is that the drive can run a bit warm under heavy load, but this is typical for high-performance NVMe SSDs and can be managed with proper cooling solutions.

In summary, the Western Digital 2TB WD Blue SN570 NVMe SSD is an excellent upgrade for anyone looking to enhance their system's speed and storage capacity. The impressive performance and easy installation make it a top choice for both casual users and tech enthusiasts.

I bought two of these 1TB drives to replace some generic 512gb units that came in some prebuilts. These drives are an excellent value in terms of cost and what you get. On the PCIe 4x4 bus they're designed for they absolutely achieve the advertised 4150Mb/s in both read AND write operations. Sure you can get faster drives but they also run hotter and are considerably more expensive. The SN580 is a great middle point. Although I run these(and all of my nvme ssds) with heatsinks, temperatures were just fine and actually lower than the drive it replaced. Acronis' software is included for drive cloning and some other tools and I used it to clone these drives with not a single hiccup. A few stats for nerds... these are DRAM-less drives and employ an SLC cache of around 350gbs. 112layer Kioxia BiCS5 TLC NAND is used. Once that cache fills up though you can expect around 3-400Mb/s. Overall, still a great budget drive with decent performance for all kinds of users. Works great in PCIe3x4 slots as well at around 3500Mb/s R/W as measured in CDM. If you can live without the DRAM, seriously look at these drives.
