WD BLACK P50 GAME DRIVE

FROM US$150 | SHOP.WESTERNDIGITAL.COM

The USB 3.2 spec was announced back in February 2019, but it’s only just starting to arrive on devices like WD’s Black P50 Game Drive now. USB 3.2 is the third generation of USB 3 connection and basically adds an additional lane of USB 3.2 bandwidth to double the throughput from 10Gbps to 20Gbps. WD Black also uses an NVMe SSD that transfers information 4 times faster than SATA connected SSDs. In order to get the full 2,000MB/s speeds you’ll need to have the latest USB 3.2 (Gen 2) interface on your PC, but even over USB 3.1 this drive should still be twice as fast as current portable SSDs.
