    Product Name: WD Blue 3D NAND 1TB PC SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s 2.5"/7mm Solid State Drive - WDS100T2B0A
    Product Description: The WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD utilizes 3D NAND technology for capacities up to 2TB with enhanced reliability. Featuring an active power draw up to 25% lower than previous generations of WD Blue SSDs, you’re able to work longer before recharging your laptop, while sequential read speeds up to 560MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 530MB/s give the speed you want for your most demanding computing applications. Combined with the free, downloadable WD SSD Dashboard software and a 5-year limited warranty, you can confidently upgrade your system to the WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD. As used for storage capacity, one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment. Active power draws are up to 25% lower during sequential reads than previous generations of WD Blue SSD at the 500GB capacity point. As used for transfer rate or interface, megabyte per second (MB/s) = one million bytes per second and gigabit per second (Gb/s) = one billion bits per second. MTTF = Mean Time To Failure based on internal testing using Telcordia stress part testing. TBW (terabytes written) values calculated using JEDEC client workload (JESD219) and vary by product capacity.
    Manufacturer: Western Digital
    Model Number: WDS100T2B0A
    Product SKU: N82E16820250088
    Width: 69.85mm
    Features: High capacity with enhanced reliabilityA WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD uses Western Digital 3D NAND technology not only for higher capacities (up to 2TB) than the previous generation WD Blue SSDs, but also to help reduce cell-to-cell interference for enhanced reliability. Enhanced power efficiencyOffering improved endurance, a WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD features an active power draw up to 25% lower than previous generations of WD Blue SSDs. And with less power used, you're able to work longer before recharging your laptop. Superior performance for high-end computingFor a variety of computing applications like gaming, HD media playback, or creative software, look to WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSDs. Western Digital 3D NAND technology helps enable sequential read speeds up to 560 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 530 MB/s for fast system boot-ups, quick application responses, and rapid transfer speeds.Leading-edge reliabilityAn SSD is designed with no moving parts to help protect against data loss if it is accidentally bumped or dropped.

    Aperently they dont understand the magic sub $100 mark, just drop all 1TB to $99 and watch them fly off the shelves.

    Yeah, when cost cutting brings the reliability down to that of a HDD that's been through UPS handlers during Christmas.

    This is plenty fine for gaming or anything else really, only small hit would be the write endurance compared to a samsung 860 evo but you would never really hit it anyway. biggest performance jump is spinning drive to ssd, after that its very minimal even when compared to nvme like a 970evo

    This would be a great choice for anyone still on a HDD.

    Great upgrade for a PS4 Pro.

    The 5400RPM HGST stock drive is soooo slow.

    How does this WD compared to the 960GB SanDisk SSD Plus (SDSSDA-960G-G26) that was recently on sale for $120? Seems a lot of folks thought the Sandisk was prone to failures and wondering if this WD Blue is more reliable?

    That specific SanDisk model and series is pretty bottom of the barrel when it doesn't even list drive write endurance. One step up would be SanDisk Ultras which is relabeled wd blue. Newer model is this wd 3d blue or SanDisk Ultra 3d even if it was released 2017

    I agree, and it was WIDELY rumored that this drive or other re-badged wd blue SSD would be $99 for BF 2018, BUT that did not happen... Instead we saw some shitty centon drives @ $99.. I predict $99 by Summer.. they are just greedy at retail because they bought in at $75 wholesale and don't want a measly $25 profit per drive. When wholesale goes to $60 you will see $99
