Scam company. Makes a product, then downgrades the components to save money.

Make a product, Send it out to reviewers and consumers, let it earn a good reputation in the market, then downgrade components to increase profits.

First ADATA did it, then PNY, now WD (though they did the same thing in the past with their RED hard drives). Consumers beware...

I agree if you are constantly downloading 100 gb games or moving 100 gb files around then you should get a better SSD like the various WD Blacks.

But for the vast majority we number one understand Blue is not as good as any of the Blacks.

This all comes from some stupid cheapo who bought WD Blues to do WD Black stuff because originally the Blue was made very similar to the Black. Nowadays that has changed. All manufactures now makes the cheaper M.2's cheaper thus not as good as the more expensive ones.

It is not like this is not normal. I have seen this over and over. Something new comes along. Originally all brands are somewhat similar. Over time the cheaper ones are made cheaper. Great to luck out and get a Black for the price of a Blue. But to then complain when the Blue is actually made cheaper is dishonest at best.
