  • Excellent bang for the buck, Maintains 750MBps write speed when cache is exhausted
  • Only available in 250GB and 500GB capacities
  • Even WD's bargain NVMe SSDs provide excellent bang for the buck. Unlike some cheap competitors, the Blue SN500 maintains a reasonable 750MBps write speed when it runs out of cache. That alone makes it our favorite entry-level NVMe SSD...

  • Yes, I think I said it all already in the above paragraphs, this is not the fastest NVMe SSD on the market, but it is among the most affordable ones, often even cheaper than a SATA3 SSD. So that's the baseline and narrative to follow here; you need to com...
