WD Blue WDS500G2B0A 500GB 2.5-Inch SATA Internal Solid State Drive

Product arrived timeously and clearly good quality befitting the Western Digital brand image/promise. Once installed it works well, as expected. Install/usage instructions to install/use, etc. are not that great, got to say, and can be described as reasonably acceptable. No doubt at all that WD could/should have made the process a whole lot easier .... disappointing. As WD and SanDisk are now clearly part of the same group and it therefore needs to be clearly explained (PLEASE NOTE, WD!) that SanDisk is now the lead brand / product and that, for instance, management of WD products seem to clearly be via the use of SanDisk software, etc. Thus, a whole lot of "greyness" pervades around the implications of both these brand names existing within the same company. I would imagine that non-techie / newbies to SSD installation to replace their HDD's would find this process unnecessarily difficult. One has to ask the question why the greyness around this modern, popular SSD usage, etc. to replace one's older technology HDD's? Weird ... Deserved criticisms aside, as mentioned, the WD SSD is good value and, once properly installed, works well. Newbies can trust the delivery of this WD SSD but will be a little challenged in finalising the installation/usage/management process. As a new, working SSD therefore, once properly installed, I can recommend the quality, speed and expected reliability expected from the WD brand name/promise. Make sure, however, that you go through the frustrating, clunky process of registering the disk, otherwise any possible future failures will not be honoured.

Fine for playing my games off of it even though its not the fastest SDD. Had no trouble attaching it to my PC and it fits inside with no issues.

Fantastic item, perfect quality, highly recommended. Worth every penny. Works exactually as advertised. Arrived safely and was packed securely.

Good speeds read/write, build quality seems good, reasonable price, just plug it into the sata port on your motherboard and forget it

Cheap reliable Sata SSD storage. Not as fast as M.2, but excellent overall.

Arrived on time and sooner than suspected. Been waiting to get this and it's in perfect condition. No damage and perfectly intact. Fast delivery and gonna work well in my build. Highly recommend but make sure the price is right. I gotten this while it was £211

Terrible experience, under sustained data transfer (unpacking zip files and cabs etc in particular) the drive fails frequently. Also randomly fails to be picked up by windows 11, despite changing leads and ports, none of my other drives have this problem, steer clear.

I've had this for over 5 months now, and so far I've not had any issues with it. I needed a quick replacement for my dying HDD for my PC, so got this as it was available for next day delivery. I use this SSD for my games, and I'm able to play them just fine. Read and write speeds are as expected. There's obviously a noticeable difference between the performance of this SSD and my still dying HDD. If anything changes, I'll update my review.

Bra och mycket pålitlig SSD disk

Kvalitet

Muy buena SSD, una de las mas baratas, la compre para una PS3 Slim, y funciona perfectamente, muy ligera, no se calienta, no aprovecho los 3 meses de Dropbox ni el software Acronis, pero no la compre por eso, la compre porque es de una marca reconocida, de las mas baratas que hay en Amazon con 500GB, con buena velocidad y fiable.

I used this SATA drive for my Eufy homebase 3. Very easy to install and is working seamlessly, it screws straight in.
