Product Features

High capacity with enhanced reliability

A 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 efﬁciency

Offering 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 computing

For 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 560MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 530MB/s for fast system boot-ups, quick application responses, and rapid transfer speeds.

Leading-edge reliability

An SSD is designed with no moving parts to help protect against data loss if it is accidentally bumped or dropped. And with 1.75M hours MTTF (mean time to failure), up

to 500 TBW (terabytes written), and several error correction technologies, WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSDs can help guard data for years to come.

Broad compatibility

With a certiﬁcation from the WD Functional Integrity Testing Lab (F.I.T. Lab™), every WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD is veriﬁed for compatibility with a wide range of desktop and laptop computers. Every WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD goes through extensive compatibility and reliability testing to ensure it meets the high standards of the WD brand.

Downloadable WD SSD Dashboard and Acronis software

Monitor your drive’s available capacity, operating temperatures, SMART attributes and more with the WD SSD Dashboard. Acronis® True Image™ WD Edition software, available as a free download, can clone drives and backup your operating system, applications, settings and all of your data.

5-year limited warranty

Every WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD comes with a 5-year limited warranty, so you can be conﬁdent of your storage when you upgrade or replace any of your drives.

Applications

WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSDs are available in either a 2.5”/7mm cased or an M.2 2280 model to evolve with smaller and thinner computers. With form factors to accommodate most laptops, desktop PCs, and small form PCs, a WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD is ready for the job.

Backward compatible to SATA II and I.

As used for storage capacity, one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending on operating environment. 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.

1600MHz RAM.

TBW (terabytes written) values calculated using JEDEC client workload (JESD219) and vary by product capacity.

Power measurements at 25°C. Based on ﬁrmware version with DIPM enabled. Measured using MobileMark® 2014 on Lenovo T560, Intel® CoreTM i5–6200U 2.30GHz Processor, DDR3L 4GB 1600MHz RAM, Windows 10 with

Intel Driver iRST 14.8.0.1042.

Active power draws are up to 25% lower during sequential reads than previous generations of WD Blue™ SSD at the 500GB capacity point.

MTTF = Mean Time To Failure based on internal testing using Telcordia stress part testing.
