    Wd has been largely one of the top performers in my opinion for nvmes these days and the wd black sn7100 is another sure fire option


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was a littler surprised when i came across it originally that it was a pci gen4 still vs the latest and greatest gen5 but frankly 7000 mbs is still just crazy fast
