Western Digital 1TB WD Blue SN550 NVMe Internal SSD - Gen3 x4 PCIe 8Gb/s, M.2 2280, 3D NAND, Up to 2,400 MB/s - WDS100T2B0C

Fast and useful. It made my experience with laptop very comfortable. Best value for money. I bought for 5400 rs.

An easy to install and reliable drive. Performs decently for a M.2 drive, and is easy to install. Make sure to pay attention when picking PC parts that youve got the correct keying, as M.2 has a few different pin layouts. This is a PCIe M.2, not SATA, so it has the single toe on the pins, rather than the two toes.

Upgraded my 256GB to 1TB on my XPS-15. Worked like a charm. Hard part was copying my windows install to the new drive. Used an external adapter to put the drive into for copying. Used AOMEI to make the copy. FYI takes the paid version to make the copy. FYI if you install the free version, then go to uninstall it, it will offer about a 50% discount on the paid version. That worked as about 10/5/2021. Your mileage may vary.

Has worked without a flaw for almost a year now and has been the best investment I have made for my computer. Bought the 1 gig version and I no longer have to bother with USB sticks to store photos and music. No more range anxiety! Installed this in a Dell XPS 13 9360 (I think it is) using Macrium Reflect and Aomei Partition Magic to adjust partitions afterwards - both free. I needed a USB adapter cable to set up the drive initially (some kind of way) for the drive to be recognized by the laptop first. Im not a computer expert. Just Goog it.

good

Doesn’t come with the screw for the motherboard

First m.2 Ive installed. Super easy. Pefer this over ssd Sata.

Extremely easy to install, just one screw. Runs very well. Especially when games are installed to it.

Boot time 4.8 sec

Looking online Im not the only one who has been affected with this but it appears this SSD is picky on which Gen3 x4 PCI-E hardware it will work on. The drive still works great but I had to swap it to a different system to get the BIOS to recognise it and get the drive to work. The SN500 works fine in the same motherboard so its probably a firmware issue. No fix listed on either the main board or the drive. Both had the latest firmware available.
