WD Black SN850X 8TB M.2 PCIe 4.0 SSD for $533

$879.99 $533.10 at Amazon

The SN850X, WD's latest flagship Black series M.2 SSD, delivers top-tier performance. Expect sustained read speeds up to 7,300MBps, write speeds up to 6,600MBps, random read speeds up to 1,200K IOPS, and write speeds of 1,100 IOPS. Upgrades over the SN850 include newer BiCS5 flash chips (vs. BiCS4) and updated firmware. It's backed by a five-year warranty.

Gamers will appreciate the included Game Mode 2.0 utility software, optimized for enhanced gaming performance. With 8TB of storage—the highest capacity readily available in a mainstream SSD—you'll have ample space for your operating system, applications, and virtually every game imaginable. It's also a perfect fit for PlayStation 5 consoles, meeting all of Sony's requirements (M.2 2280 form factor, minimum 5,500MB/s speed, and PCI-E Gen4x4 interface), and is functionally identical to Sony's officially licensed WD SN850P SSD. Note that a heatsink is not included, but affordable options are readily available.
