WD Blue SN5100 4TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD, Blue/Black

The WD Blue SN5100 NVMe SSD is an internal storage solution designed specifically for workstations and professional creative environments requiring high-speed data access. This model utilizes the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface and the NVMe 1.4 protocol to achieve sequential read speeds of up to 6900 MB/s and sequential write speeds of 6700 MB/s. The drive provides a 4TB storage capacity, utilizing 3D QLC NAND flash memory managed by a specialized SanDisk Polaris 3 controller. Its architecture is optimized for handling large file transfers and managing demanding workflows effectively.

Technical reliability is supported by several integrated features, including Error Correction Code (ECC) and TCG Opal 2.01 hardware encryption for data security. The drive also incorporates S.M.A.R.T. monitoring and TRIM support to maintain peak performance and drive health during long-term use. With a mean time between failures of 1.75 million hours and an endurance rating of 1200 TBW, this component is built for sustained operation. The physical design follows the M.2 2280 form factor with a 2.38mm height, making it suitable for compact system builds.
