Review: Very fast drive & at a fair price. - Western Digital SA5002TB SATA SSD 2.5 inch Hard Drive. Excellent drive, very fast and I have used it as an upgrade for my C drive. Well worth the price.
Review: Extremely Reliable & Blazing-Fast — Best NAS Upgrade - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Extremely Reliable & Blazing-Fast — Best NAS Upgrade I’ve Made I recently replaced a very loud 7200 rpm hard drive in my NAS with this WD Red SA500 SSD, and the difference has been fantastic. The drive is incredibly fast — file access and responsiveness feel like night and day. It’s a huge step up from my old HDD in terms of speed. Tom’s Hardware measured read/write speeds of up to ~560/530 MB/s on this model. ￼ What I love most, though, is the silence. Gone are the constant whirring and vibration of the spinning drive — now my NAS is whisper quiet. That has made working on it much more pleasant. In terms of reliability, this SSD is purpose-built for 24/7 NAS use, with solid endurance (the 4 TB version is rated for 2,500 TB written) and a long MTBF (mean time to failure) of up to 2 million hours. ￼ It feels very robust for the always-on environment. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied — this drive makes my NAS feel modern and truly responsive. Highly recommend if you want to upgrade to something fast and dependable.
