This drive is slimmer it seems than the slots in my PC so you might need an adapter sled. (writing may be a more complex process, who knows.)Ħ. WD reckon the is drive reads at 560MB/s and Writes at 530B/s as you can see from the attached picture my read speed wasn't far off but the write speed is way off their claimed speed. Don't expect the drive to perform as per the MNF claims. You don't need to buy an external USB connector to clone the drive just disconnect your other drives inside your PC and use those SATA ports.ĥ. If you don't want to spend the extra £160 odd on an extra TB like me (My old disk was 2TB and the SSD is 1TB) then be prepared to pay for another program that can clone bigger drives to smaller drives like EaseUS Partition Master. If you are using the 'Acronis true image' program that is available free from WD then you need to buy an SSD disk that is the same capacity as your old disk or the clone wont work as it seemed to want to clone the empty bit of the old drive.ģ.

Do a 'checkdisk' on your old main drive because if there are any errors it (old C: drive), the drive won't clone.Ģ. So before you start this process here is what I recommend.ġ. My mother board is a Z97 from ASUS and has four 6G/s SATA 3 ports. The idea being to clone my existing C: drive and at the same time speed the PC up.

So I ordered this SSD as my mechanical HDD was getting on for 5 years old and had done quite a bit of work, so thought before it crashes I will upgrade. ‎RASHI PERIPHERALS PVT LTD.,RASHI COMPLEX A BLDG, SURVEY 186, DONGARIPADA, POMAN, VASAI-E,THANE, MAHARASHTRA-401208 ‎Western Digital, Western Digital UK Ltd, 388 Jiang Chuan East Road, Minhang District, Shanghai, PRC Samsung 870 EVO 1TB SATA 6.35 cm (2.5') Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) (MZ-77E1T0)
