WD released their new Black SN750 NVMe SSD early this year. It's the successor to last year's WD Black (2018), our review here. The WD Black 2018 was a fast and good NVMe SSD, able to compete with Samsung 970 EVO. But it wasn't enough, thus the company r...
The WD Black SN750 is a good M.2 NVMe SSD overall. It did not outperform its predecessor, the WD Black 2018, by a huge margin; and I wasn't expecting either. Nevertheless, it did outperform its predecessor most of the time by a few MB/s. It also outperfor...
