Would have bought it if the 2 TB version was available when I built my rig.

Great SSD, beaten only by the 990 Pro IMO.

It is $18 cheaper at Dell with Honey Gold, oh wait, that's now Paypal Rewards. I don't know how to link to that without installing Honey Gold.

chrcoluk · Nov 18, 2023

Not a bad price for Americans to take advantage off.

However looks like we not missing out here.

The 'Samsung 990 PRO 2TB PCIe 4.0' similar in terms of exchange rate cost for us brits. £120 at time of this post.

Damn, I literally paid around half that for the same drive with heatsink a couple or so months back. How on earth is UK outdoing USA on pricing for these drives. Very unusual.

YUCK!! I'm already in a (losing) pissing contest with Netgear over their cloud requirement for switches. No way in hell I'm buying one of those that requires their app in order to operate at full performance level.

erocker · Nov 19, 2023

No, you absolutely do not need WD's utility for sn850x drives for anything.

phill · Nov 19, 2023

I'm not sure why, but these aren't as cheap as I remember them being....

Amazon being sneaky again.....

Just saw this and had to put this one up.....

I might have to in the morning.... Just to see if it works, I doubt it but......

Predictive Loading, Overhead Balancing, and Adaptive Thermal Management features come to the SN850X to juice up your gaming performance.(3)
(3) Requires the WD_BLACK Dashboard (Windows only)

Haha, necro thread. I saw $179 and I was like that's not that good :confused:

All of it sounds like useless bloatware as the drive performs up to specs without installing any software.
