WESTERN DIGITAL Blue SN5100 2TB M.2 NVMe Gen4 Solid State Drive ( SSD )

The Western Digital Blue SN5100 2TB is a high-performance internal solid-state drive designed for content creators, power users, and anyone looking to accelerate an existing desktop or laptop build. Running on the PCIe Gen 4.0 interface over the M.2 2280 form factor, this NVMe drive delivers sequential read speeds of up to 7,100 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 6,700 MB/s — meaningful gains for transferring large video projects, game libraries, or virtual-machine images. Random performance reaches up to 1,000K IOPS read and 1,300K IOPS write, which keeps multitasking smooth even under sustained mixed workloads. Western Digital builds the SN5100 on SANDISK 3D CBA NAND technology, and the drive leverages SANDISK nCache 4.0 to accelerate burst writes, so copying large folders or project files feels noticeably quicker. The drive weighs just 5.7 g and measures 3.15″ × 0.87″ × 0.09″, making it a drop-in fit for most modern laptops and desktop motherboards with an M.2 2280 slot. With a rated endurance of 900 TBW (Terabytes Written) and a 5-year limited warranty, the SN5100 2TB is engineered for long-term reliability in demanding environments. Operating temperature is rated from 32 °F to 185 °F (0 °C to 85 °C), and the drive carries a broad set of regional certifications including CE, FCC, UL, RCM, KCC, VCCI, UKCA, TÜV, and others, confirming it meets safety and EMC standards across multiple markets. Western Digital also bundles Acronis True Image for SanDisk data-migration software so you can clone an existing drive without purchasing third-party tools, and the SanDisk Dashboard application lets you monitor health, firmware version, and performance over time.
