Works in Toshiba Satellite P50 C 18k
I didn't really need to upgrade my existing 250g SSD that my laptop came with. Even though its just a 6th gen I5, its been running Windows 11 for several months without any problems so I decided it would be good to do a clean install. If I am going to do a clean install I might as well change the SSD at the same time. Ideally I would have installed a Samsung drive as I have plenty of experience with them, but it seems that their M2 Sata drives have disappeared from the market. I saw this one on Amazon and the price is amazing and WD have a good reputation. Clean install was very easy - massive improvement since the old days of 13 floppy discs with windows 3.11. There has been a very noticeable improvement in boot up time (which wasn't bad before) which is in part due to the clean install but I guess the new SSD is contributing. If you are tempted - go for it. Keep the old drive and buy an external USB case for it so you can transfer any old documents etc to the new drive. The only program that I use that has a demand on processing and memory is Cubase 12 pro and this is working fine - I do have 16gb of Ram that the laptop came with so that helps.

Decent speed
Good speeds read/write, build quality seems good, reasonable price, just plug it into the sata port on your motherboard and forget it

Great for retro consoles.
Was looking for an affordable SSD for use in upgrading a 2006 PS3.I chose this model as I trust Western Digital & have used them in a professional environment.The product came in simple packaging and was easy to install, be aware the SSD does not include mounting screws.As an SSD it is perfectly quiet, the drive has improved my loading times by up to a minute in some games.

I trusted my data to Western Digital and lost it all
These are terrible. I now have 3 of them, one for live data, another for its backup. These 2 have both failed and become totally unreadable. one failed during a data copy operation, so I bought a new one and replaced the dead one. The other failed during restoring from the backup to the replacement, but its was the backup drive that failed so I've lost both copies of the data - 800 Gb of valuable data. It's apparently a Western Digital firmware problem that needs updating before use, but how would anybody know that!. A complete disaster.
