I'd put SATA in the title so no one buys it without noticing that.

I dont care about speeds but some m.2 slots dont support Sata SSD's so you have to buy NVME even if you dont need the speed.

I purchased a 2tb WD blue ssd (2.5 inch form factor). Started to develop IO command timeout issue more recently (drive had only been very lightly utilized). Asked for RMA, they received defective drive on December 20, today is Jan 11 and I have not received any update. Not impressed with either the product or the warranty service

And others are the opposite. My board has a m.2 slot that only supports sata. Always make sure you know what you're buying and what your motherboard supports.

Should be $100.

Without telling anyone last year, WD decreased the warranty (5 down to 3), dumbed down the nand (used a cheaper product), decreased performance, and in short, went from a good SSD to a crappy one.

A year ago I would have bought this in a second. No longer.

Thanks for the heads up, honestly I would bite for game storage if it was 100 bucks.

No. You need a gen4 NVME SSD.

How do you tell? Just got a laptop with m.2 and am definitely confused about a lot of things related to m.2.

If you "just got it" (new), then 99% chance it's NVMe. But just in case: https://windowsloop.com/how-to-te...indows-10/
