*Reliable* Western Digital solid state hard drives are 3 to 4 times faster than conventional SATA mechanical drives. They load the operating systems and access data much faster than mechanical SATA hard drives. These are a must in today’s world. If you have the opportunity to upgrade your PC or build a new one, the recommended use is to load the operating system to a nice solid state Western Digital and keep a traditional mechanical sata drive as a STORAGE drive (these are so cheap these days). This is a tried and true method that works well! Just using this SSD drive ALONE with an operating system and for storage works well too if you don’t have the opportunity to do BOTH drives in the same PC. *This 2.5″ drive works well for laptops and desktop PC’s*

A couple years ago I bought a Dell Inspiron laptop (I3) processor with the intention of using it as a spare. The PC suffered from lousy boot times-as much as 35 minutes. I couldn’t fix that in task manager. I tried replacing the standard 1tb HD with a WD Green 1tb hard drive. Boot time is <1 minute (ca 30 seconds). The computer has fast snappy response.
Installation took 2.5-3 hrs. I used Acronis to clone the HD. It spent a very long time preparing the source disk. Maybe 30 minutes writing to the WD SSD target. It took 15 minutes to swap the drives. 10 of that 15 minutes was looking for a screw that fell out, hit the table and bounced into some unknown dimension.
Initial boot up with the SSD was without problem and took less than a minute. The laptop has performed flawlessly and blazingly fast compared to the original drive.
I read the reviews on Blue VS Green ssd drives. If I were going to use this laptop for high i/o, intensive use, I probably wouldn’t have bought the Green. But then this laptop wouldn’t be Dell with an I3 processor. The estimated life expectancy of the green is up to 1.0 million hours. that’s just under 115 years. The blue would last just under 200 years. I may be sorry in 2135. This is the 3rd laptop I’ve replaced the original drive with an SSD. I’ve had one failure. It was up and running within a couple of hours of getting the replacement drive.
The bottom line is this SSD made this laptop usable.

It seems to be a decent drive. If all you are looking for is a SSD this will do fine. My big complaint is sustained write speeds. The DRAM cache is pretty small and fills after a few GB. While writing to the cache the speeds are between 250 and 300 MB sec. once it’s full, the speeds jump all over the place. Write speeds drop as low as 1 MB sec and back up to around 150 MB sec. Read speeds are decent and in line with other SATA drives I have used. It’s a pretty good value drive.

I bought this 1TB WD Green SSD to replace a very old HDD on my dinosaur Windows 7 desktop. I used the free Acronis download from WD clone the old system drive. Acronis make this so easy. Cloning and startup went flawlessly.
Pro:
Lowest price per GB I could find anywhere
US based, name-brand, industry-leading company
Fast enough for my very old PC
Free Acronis download made installation EASY
Win-7 Boot time increased TEN FOLD
SO QUIET !!
Con
Not quite as fast as higher-priced mainstream drives
I spent HOURS of Black Friday research and stress to select this specific drive. I was torn between Seagate and WD, as both are industry leaders and US based. I have lost Seagate drives in the past, I’ve never lost a WD drive, so I went with WD. I went with WD Green(slow) instead of WD Blue (Fast) because green is substantially less money, and, this old system can’t really go that fast.
I’ve very happy with this purchase. I only regret not doing this long ago. After the holidays, I will buy another to upgrade the wife’s old computer.

I’d always recommend everybody to upgrade their spinning system disks to an SSD. You get many benefits of performance especially as a system disk.
In my case, I already have a 512GB SSD as my system drive, but I’d added a 1TB HDD as a data disk. Unfortunately, I found the spinning disk made my PC noiser and produced vibrations. (Not to mention issues regarding seeks times etc). For under £80, I removed my noise issues, and resolved performance issues at the same time.
I’ve been through many SSDs in my time, and I can say this WD is really good. You just need a spare SATA cable for data and power. It all worked straight out of the box with no drivers or additional software installation required. (I use Windows 10).
Overall, I’m very happy with this.

This SSD hard drive is doing it’s job and doing it well. It’s silent as compared to my original SATA hard drive. I have noticed a faster loading of software and retrieving of data.
I didn’t install it myself. My son, the computer expert, did all of the hard work, including transferring all of the data and software from my old hard drive. The installation seemed to be pretty easy, no difficulties arose. The harder part was loading the information from the old drive to the SSD drive. But that’s not what this review is about; just the drive itself.
I’d recommend this item to anyone considering changing or adding a second drive to their system.

I bought 3 of these total and upgraded my work PC, my work laptop and my wife’s PC. This was the best upgrade I have made to our computers in years and it was super low cost. Boot times are 100% faster. It’s like getting a new computer but better. These were really easy to install and there are plenty of instructional you tube videos but you can be logical and figure it out. I have been running drives for about a month with no issues and best of all no sound.
By nature SSD have no moving parts and what’s noticeable is the lack of sound or noise coming from my computers now. All in all I would buy more but don’t need more.

lo he instalado en una Carcasa para USB 3.0 y lo he formateado en Consola XBox para guardar juegos únicamente, el formateo no es valido para PC, todo ha sido sencillo y super-fácil, 931 Gb. libres de espacio en la Consola y velocidad de carga mas rápida en arranque de juegos y partidas, esa era mi propósito, ya conocÃa esta marca y modelo por tenerlo en un portátil aunque de menos capacidad, ¡¡es perfecto!!, ¿los hay mejores?, SI, la serie BLUE por ejemplo pero para este propósito es suficiente, no he echo un medidor de velocidad como es razonable pero funciona perfectamente, envÃo de Amazon perfecto como siempre para después de Reyes y afortunado por su precio ya que a posterior de mi compra su precio es superior.

WD é um dos melhores discos SSD de estado sólido que existem, porém, há muitas falsificações vendidas por aÃ. Este é de fato um WD legÃtimo, podem comprar sem medo, é rápido e durável. Aprovado.

I liked how easy it was to install. Just had to restart computer a couple times for Windows to recognize it. Price was fair. Going to use this SSD for mostly storage. Was getting really annoyed by how noisy & slow my old storage HDD was. So far so good. One minor complaint is that Amazon shipped it in a bubble envelope. Should’ve been in a small box with air pillows or bubble wrap. Not too happy about that but it arrived in okay fashion. Thanx WD & Amazon. 🙂

Initial Review Mar 12, 2021
I bought this drive for use as a USB 3.0 connected NAS style drive on our WiFi router. There are two things for which my wife and I like to share access which includes all of our family photos, and all of our family budget information.
The photos consume over 350GB so we needed a larger drive.
This drive had a read speed of 451MBs when plugged directly into the desktop computer. It had a read speed of about 100MBs when connected to the USB 3.0 port on the WiFi router.
I’ve had good performance and reliability with WD drives so this was an easy choice. The price was right at $89 too.
I recommend this drive.
