The WD SN850x is a tremendous performer.

(The 2TB 990 Pro is currently$149.99 at Amazonwith heatsink, for reference.)

James measured the drive’s performance in real-world testing too, and here the SN850x also did well.

By contrast, the older SN850 managed around 10s in the same test.

That just about does it, so thanks for reading and we’ll catch you again soon!
