got the 2TB for 160.-
sick drive
Got the Cyber Monday deal at Best Buy $109. 👌
I buyed yesterday for 101 lol XD
I bought one today for $85 in Mexico but it's 1tb
@toomuchradiation99 Heck it's a fast drive. It boosted my gaming speeds.
@@adaboy4z I've never had an SSD like this, I'm coming from storing my games on a HDD so I guess it is going to be a huge difference 😅 I ordered it today
@@toomuchradiation99 you will love it!!! The software interface from Samsung is very nice a lot of test and tweaking capabilities.
I just bought my second one as MSFS and DCS World Flight Sims need a 4TB M2 each, and this will greatly help with backups all being in on
how is it holding up with MSFS? any improvements? is Game Mode helping?
I buyed this because it was in offer , and now i see that it's one of the fatest nvme that exists. The Best purchase of my life lol

How is the WD BLACK SN850X 2TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 4 x4 with heatsink on the ps5 ?
is it very good or ok or bad or doe's it have issue's ( like heat or any other issue's ) ?
I just bought two of the 1TB versions (with heatsink) on sale, $92 each.
I just got the 2TB for 190. Similar deal!
@@StaXks_Gaming Nice! I just bought a WD_BLACK SN850X 4TB to replace my 4TB game drive RAID 0 (4 1TB SSDs). I'm going to use those 1TB SSDs as cache drives in my NAS and as boot drives for other computers.
got the 2TB for 110 usd during black friday, crazy how the price dropped after almost 1 year.
@@chanhien4000 Nice, yeah, I'm getting the 4TB ones for just $200 now. I can now dump all my 1TB non-m.2 drives I was using for a game drive RAID-0 (stuff I could just easily download again).

Whats the program for wd black? Can u send the link.
I just ordered this… upgrading from the samsung evo pro 850 I’m excited
Is the heatsink a must? I heard that this ssd runs hot
Id like to know aswell.
@@rejectmodernity99 me too
bought mines during black friday
There a big difference in speed between the 1tb and the 2tb version? The 2tb version has 1200 iops vs 800 iops on the 1tb
1TB is 300MBps slower at write speed.
I brought the same WD SN850x and tested it's speed and it resulted as 1800Mb/s and 1600Mb/s...My victus supports GEN4, How can I fix it's poor speed?

It's very good, i hace one un my ps5
i use two 1tb in raid0 as my c drive and it's a treat
2tb for 118$ on amazon rn....crazy how cheap it is currently Aug 23
Just bought the 2TB version for 119.00 and the 4TB version for 229.00 2TB arrived and i installed it into my minisforum UM790 PRO it is very fast and runs cool . games load fast and run smooth even at 4K . 4TB is arriving in 3 days will test it out then . The 2TB version comes in at 7300 mbs as advertised .
Where did you buy these from?
@@yellowflash7696 got the 2tb from amazon got the 4tb from WD when mthey were on sale in Janurary
@@yellowflash7696 also an update on the 4TB when transferring large video files from 2tb to 4 tb some incredible speeds of 2GB a second which shocked me because it says maximum transfer speed of 7300 Mbs that was more than double the speed
The main drive of these were for Consoles. The PS5 and Xbox Series X benefit from this. There are far superior ssd drives for PCs
Mine has chips on one side( in the sticker side), on the flipside it has no chips...is that normal?
Are you sure you got the x version? If you dont have the chip in the middle you might have the non x version which doesnt have the dram chip
man I just got 1 of the 2tb for my boot drive and then 2 of the 4tb for a stripe as storage. Super nice ssds...I paid a little over 100 for the 2tb with heatsink (which I didnt want the heatsink) and then I paid 230 each for the 4tb ones. They are super fast super efficient and super reliable thus far. Installed over 200 games thus far having them pegged at full load for quite a while. They are phenomenal chips.
Do you use any heatsinks for the 4TBs? In my new pc, I use one 4TB with the mainboard heatsink and a second one without any heatsink. The second one gets 5-8 degrees hotter in idle, 41 vs 47. I hope this will not become a problem in the future, because temps can reach 65 to 70 (load).
got the 4tb for 250 😭
Managed to get a 2TB for under 100! been great.
I just got the 2TB sn850x black drive for $170! 🕺
i have a few of the 4tb ones, but i only seem to be getting up to 2gb/s read speed
Sounds tough lil niqqha
@@Keeki549 ?
can i upgrade to my laptop please answer before i buy it
I'm using a 4TB model in a Trebleet (v2) enclosure and getting 2700 MBs read/write in Black Magic on my M2 laptop w/Thunderbolt 4.
Getting one so I can run Windows 11
Is this NVME SSD good for editing video? If not, which ones would you recommend?
Dude it's one of the fastest and you're asking is it good for gaming? Whaat
Hello friend, how are you? I have the same ssd, but it is the WD SN850X, I use it on an Asrock x570 Steel Legend motherboard, but in the Dashboard app in the "INTERFACE SPEED" part shows
Interface speed
Capacity:
Gen4 (4 Lanes)
Connection:
Gen4 (2 Lanes) instead of “(4 Lanes)”
I also use the SN750se, and this one shows
Interface speed
Capacity:
Gen4 (4 Lanes)
Connection:
Gen4 (4 lanes)
It's correct as it shows in your app as well.
This sn850x I'm using is like this, and the speed also doesn't go more than 3600 mb/s
And yours that is practically the same model, is correct, (4 Lanes) and the speed almost 7000 mb/s.
What can it be?
Do I need a heatsink for the 4TB version? Thanks
Yes، you need a heat sink it is better to get one with a heat sink
@@Games-Ah46thanks
@@MaxRiley You are welcome, and the occasion is if the video recorded on your channel is in your voice, your voice is calm you are great:).
@@Games-Ah46 thank you so much! Subscribed!
Will it be compatible with X570 Rog Dark hero M.board? With No performance lost? Ty
i just bought wd sn850x and install pcie 4 port, but when i transfer data hard disk to nvmv sn 850x ssd data transfer only 115-120 mbps speed.. if i check speed on crystalcinebench its show 7000mbps read or 6900 write.. dont know where is the problem. can you tell me how to fix this issue ??
system i7 13700k
mobo gigabyte z790 ud ax 9 (bios updated)
16 gb ddr5 5200mhz ram
If you're transferring data from a HDD, you're going to be limited by your hard drive speeds. Additionally, those speeds are only sequential read speeds, which are rare to see in real life uses.
it says up to, but it dont matter to me because i dont even know what it means. im just glad i got more storage, thats almost full by the way it says i have 600 and something gigs left, so yall might wanna save up for the 4TB one.
Does it work for the msi katana gf66???
just got 2 4tb for 300 going to for sure buy 2 more 4tb later on to max out my motherboard and storage of course
I am very confused between these two ssds which one batter 1tb Wd sn 850 or 850x
850x is the updated version basically. very slight performance improvements overall.
You won't notice difference in practice so buy the cheapest one no matter what brand.
850x has a heat sink for the 1&2 tb versions and RGB
Is it support for b550 Motherboard 5700x ??
It has Gaming mode 2.0
I heard that they run quite hot when mounted in laptops. Is the heat a problem for these ssds?
Yeah. It can take off the chips With the heat
Got mine on Amazon 1tb w/ Heatsink for $70
Why dosent the 4tb come with a heatsink and what heatsink do you recommend? Looking to beef up my PS5!!!
Go with the Elecgear heatsink
It doesn't come with a heatsink because it's a double-sided design and I suppose WD didn't feel like designing a cooler for that. Certain aftermarket coolers, like from be quiet!, support double-sided drives like that.
Just got the 4 TB for $219. Micro Center.
how about the lifespan for this one?
been using two in raid0 for almost 2 years and haven't had any issues, though 2 years is well within the life span
I am having issues installing this ! Anyone else have issues with this showing up in Disk management section ? I can see this in my Bios and also my Device manager but not on the Disk mangement section so I can not format the drive ! I have now tried this on a second PC and the same issue
Can I use this as an external SSD in an enclosure on my Macbook Air M1 just for Music Production rather than any gaming?
I dont see a reason why it wouldnt work. Id hope the external enclose has at least a passive cooling though AND you have a fast connection. I dont know what the fastest cable connection can do, but if its something like 5000mb/s, this SSD would be a total waste to use.
To answer, can you? Yes. Should you? I dont know and doubt it.
This is overkill and the speed will be bottlenecked by whatever USB interface the enclosure supports
why when you could just get a regular solid state drive for cheaper? those things are expensive. 500 fucking dollars for a 4TB SSD. DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH RAM I COULD BUY FOR MY DESKTOP FOR THAT PRICE! HOW MUCH OF A BETTER CPU THAN MY INTEL I5 4690K I GOT YEARS AGO FOR 500 DOLLARS!!!!, i know im getting a WB, wait im not going to tell you because someone might buy it theres only 2 left in stock. alls i know is the one im getting will be old version of a SSD and it will have 4TB at lease. hey its gotta be better than my almost 8 year old mechanical hard drive thats slowly dying right?
@@FreeAimDogyou sound like youre taking drugs bro 😂
Is this drive faster than the ps5 drive? I'm think of getting a drive with more space.
Yes... Way faster. Ps5 is just a regular m.2
You will not notice in real live.
Corsair iCUE H150i ELITE CAPELLIX vanno bene ?
I just ordered this… upgrading from the samsung evo pro 850
Is it compatible with PS5?
Yes
I have one it’s amazing on ps5
Mind sharing what heatsink or thermal pad you bought for it
I just noticed mine is a little bit different, it come with a heatsink
@@d3f4ult_q8 Is it the 1tb or 2tb version you have since it seems the 4tb version I need is the only one without a pre installed heatsink
Yeah sure 4tb seems overkill but I been building up my PlayStation 5 library on top of the required accessories since it release in preparation of having something to at least play whenever I got one
@@bamban_garcia5562 2tb and its too much, you don’t need a 4tb I think 2tb is
A 2tb ssd with a outside 1tb hdd is amazing
@@d3f4ult_q8 Sadly 2tb is practically worthless to me since installing my entire library will barely fit there hell I have a 8tb external hard drive acting as cold storage & that's almost full as well
Not to mention I'm barely building it up so its gonna get bigger over time making anything like a 250gb, 500gb, 1tb or even 2tb for me a waste of money
@9to5Toys May you or anyone else could please tell me if you have seen SN850X 4TB in your hand that, is 4TB single sided or it is double sided SSD? I am seeing conflicting comments, some says it is single sided and some saying it is double sided! Even in official data sheet they have mentioned exactly same thickness of SN850X regardless the capacity, that means according to data sheet 1TB and 4TB has same thickness, my laptop cannot accept double sided NVMe that's why I want to be sure if 4TB is one sided (I know 1 or 2TB are one sided)
It's single sided.
it is dual sided ruclips.net/video/vTLUrPA5bEw/видео.html
I got the 4TB for 327.90.
Got the 4tb for 230
Seagate Firecuda 530 also delivers that speed, so how is the wd sn850x the fastest ssd avaialable
Top speeds is an irrelevant number, it’s all about latency, iops, random 32kbit reeds etc
@@Lachlan_McDougall i want to buy the sn850x 1tb for my ps5. It’s cheaper then the regular sn850. You happen to know if the the 2tb version of the sn 850x has improved performance vs the 1 tb sn850x?
@@loco3514 Usually larger drives of the same line are a tad faster like 2-ish-% we are talking. Barely noticable unless you do benchmarks all day and get off on scores :D
He didn’t say it’s the fastest drive ever. He said it’s the fastest drive WD Black ever made.
@@loco3514 No both the 1tb / 2tb sn850x offer the same performance with the benefit of a custom heatsink
Failed after 7 months. This is the 3rd WD SSD I've had fail on me in the last year. Good bye WD.
what do you mean how
@@botslashera 1 portable and 2 NVME SSDs from WD failed within 1 year on me. Unrecognized drive, unrecoverable data. I'm done with WD forever.
@@brbubba i went with 980 pro for os drive is that good choice
