- Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2024Capacity: 500GBVerified PurchaseI've bought and installed several of these over the last few years, and had great results. I use them to replace the old spinning hard-drives in older laptops, and it cuts boot time dramatically, and really breathes new life into old laptops.
No cables or screws included, but that's not an issue when I'm cloning and swapping out the old hard-drive.
It's not NVME, but it helps get a couple / few more years out of a laptop by making the system much more responsive.
I've only had one ever die, and that was because the laptop motherboard fried and took the RAM and SSD with it. So not an issue with the SSD, just an issue with the old HP laptop.
Highly recommended. :)
- Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2023Capacity: 4TBVerified PurchaseI wanted to add a second SSD to my system as my original Samsung SSD is almost 10 years old. Black Friday sealed the deal. As my home build only had two bays and they were both in use, I bought the Corsair Dual SSD Mounting Bracket which allowed me to put the old SSD and new SSD in the same bay (they stack on top of each other). I also planned to clone the new drive as a boot drive. When I ran the Arconis program (that you download off the WD website) and waited two hours I got a warning from Windows (when I tried to boot) that the new drive was corrupted when I tried to boot from it. I made two attempts. It just wouldn't work. A YouTuber had recommended the trial version of Macrium Reflect cloning software. I downloaded that and followed along on the provided video on their website. Super easy. I did have to go into the BIOS to change the boot order as I left the Samsung in place as a backup drive. Overall the WD drive works perfect but I recommend using Macrium to clone the drive.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2024Capacity: 1TBVerified PurchaseSSD works great now that it's installed. Didn't have much luck with the Acronis software you can find on the Western Digital website. Ran for well over 24 hours and didn't work as a bootable disk. Ended up finding info about DiskGenius online. It worked great and took about 6 hours to clone the original HDD that had 670 gigs used. Went to BIOS to switch things for the new drive, and changed wiring in the desktop. Old PC runs great now!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2024Capacity: 500GBVerified PurchaseI would give this 0 stars if I could. I ordered two drives for my children for Christmas last year. The first drive lasted about 6 months. It bricked while my daughter was working on her summer projects for high school and she lost all of her work. It was awful...but the company sent us a new SSD drive and we moved on.
The other drive was installed in my youngest daughter's computer. My youngest is a very gifted animator. This year she is taking two college level art classes and has been working on animations for her final project. We have stressed that she needed to back up in multiple places but as with any teenager she did what she was going to do. Two days ago her WD SA510 SS drive bricked. Her computer on boot could not find an OS. This of course during midterms when she had to upload parts of her animation.
We tried multiple methods of installing the SSD drive in other computers, trying to power cycle the SSD with no luck. I overnighted the drive to the best rated company for recovering data from SSD's (shout out to Desert Recovery) but the news was not promising. 25% chance of recovery due to firmware error and a charge of $995 if they could recover. Her art is worth this much to me even with money tight but leaving it up to her to decide if we should try.
So tonight I sit her upset and looking up this drive and this drive is KNOWN to fail. It is known to have issues. We have had 2 brand new drives BRICK in less than a year.
DO NOT PURCHASE THIS DRIVE!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2024Capacity: 4TBVerified PurchaseI have had this drive for quite a some time now, and it has been reliable and performs at a good speed, considering it is a SATA drive.
I have had no issues of any kind. I would recommend this drive to anyone looking for lots of storage space that doesn't need the fastest speed.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2024Capacity: 1TBVerified PurchaseI originally purchased a Seagate. I received an error formatting it for the Eufy HomeBase. On the third try it worked. A couple weeks later I received an error that the drive was no longer working. This western digital has been working perfectly now for a few months.

Amazon CustomerReviewed in Canada on December 23, 20245.0 out of 5 stars WD lives up to its name!
Capacity: 1TBVerified PurchaseAt first I was reluctant to install it due to all the bad press advertised about it and almost cancelled it.. It arrived and after hearing about recomendations on updating the firmware immedately before use, I found out that the firmware has already been updated right from the factory, so it arrived with the correct firmware ! Hooked it up and Migrated the operating system over to it and then removed the original drive and replaced it with this one, booted the machine up and no issues booting.. Seemed to boot up actually faster than the original green one I had.. Didn't require any windows drivers, or software to run it. Now with a TB of space, my operating system is no longer limited 120 gb. Drive seems very responsive, fast, reliable and is not giving me any issues and I'm quite please with it.. I've always had drives from these guys and never once have I ever had any issue with their drives... this SSD is well worth the money !!
