WD Black NVMe SSD: Introduction And Specifications
Western Digital recently launched a new family of
NVMe-based solid state drives targeting gamers and enthusiasts. The simply-branded
WD Black NVMe SSD family has a similar naming convention to some previous-generation solid state drives built by the company, but these latest offerings are packing some new technology and offer performance much higher than any of the earlier WD-made storage product offerings that came before it.
The
WD Black NVMe SSD family features a new controller, 64-layer BiCS3 3D TLC NAND flash memory, an intelligently laid-out PCB that optimizes thermal characteristics, and firmware tuned for enthusiast desktop applications.
