WD BLUE SN570 1TB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3 NVMe up to 3500 MB/s read speed, Solid State Drive

Product Information

The controller remains somewhat of a mystery — WD wouldn’t disclose any details. Architecturally, the controller is a four-channel DRAM-less design. Being a DRAMless SSD, WD enabled Host Memory Buffer (HMB) tech with this controller. This allows it to set 64MB aside for the SSD’s use in place of using onboard DRAM.

Today, we have for review the WD Blue NVMe SN570, which was released in October as a drive targeted at "creators," at least according to the press release. Considering the "570" number, the drive is actually a value-oriented M.2 NVMe designed to replace the SN550 that was released two years ago. Although this Die is a 4-plane design, most Kioxia BiCS5 NAND Dies used in most SSDs are dual planes design because of Yield and production cost. The Western Digital Dashboard helps users maintain peak performance of the Western Digital SSD in Windows operating systems with a user-friendly graphical interface for the user. The Western Digital Dashboard includes tools for analysis of the disk (including the disk model, capacity, firmware version, and SMART attributes) and firmware updates.

As much as we enjoyed the SN550 with its 96-Layer BiCS4 TLC flash, the new SN570 is faster in most types of desktop PC work. That comes courtesy of the company’s BiCS5 112-Layer TLC flash paired with the PCIe 3.0 interface. The SN570 also comes equipped with a new controller to manage the flash at higher interface speeds. Western Digital Dashboard ayuda a los usuarios a mantener el máximo rendimiento de las unidades Western Digital en los sistemas operativos Windows® con una interfaz gráfica fácil de usar para el usuario. Western Digital Dashboard incluye herramientas para el análisis del disco (incluido el modelo del disco, la capacidad, la versión del firmware y los atributos SMART) y las actualizaciones del firmware.Inspire su creatividad con una suscripción de un mes a Adobe Creative Cloud, que le ofrece acceso a algunos de los servicios y aplicaciones más creativos del mundo como Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Lightroom, Premiere Pro e InDesign. 4

Before the value of this drive gets too hyped up, we should note that this is only a PCIe 3.0 x4 drive, so it has bandwidth limitations that see it lag far behind the many PCIe 4.0 x4 drives that are storming the market. So let’s take a look at the speeds and put things in perspective.As used for storage capacity, 1GB=1,000,000,000 bytes and 1TB=1,000,000,000,000 bytes. Actual user capacity may be less depending on operating environment. Wow. Look at all the empty space on the board. I wonder if they could have fit the whole drive into a 2242 form factor. Would the drive have the same appeal?
