The first and foremost reason why most users are going gaga over SSDs is because of their high-performance capacity and superior computing experience. One of the speed benchmarks is sequential read and write speeds which is a type of pattern system in which adjacent blocks are used to store or access memory. Typically, large multimedia files are stored in this manner. Obviously, the higher the speeds (3,000MBps+), the better the performance but even at slightly lower speeds, you will see a marked improvement in application load and boot times.
WD Blue NVME SN550 500GB comes with sequential read and write speeds of up to 2,400MB/s and 1,950MB/s, respectively and includes their latest 3D NAND, firmware and an in-house controller. It also supports the WD SSD Dashboard which analyses the drive including the model, capacity, firmware version, SMART attributes and firmware updates to monitor the drive’s health and maintain optimal performance. It also utilises 4x PCIe Lane M.2 22801 PCIe Gen3 8 Gb/s interface to deliver a good performance.
