As game worlds become more immersive and place greater demands on our systems, gamers are looking for ways to optimise their rigs for intensive games and add storage for future updates and downloadable content. To help PC gamers play at their best, Western Digital just released its latest addition to the WD_BLACK™ portfolio, the WD_BLACK™ SN770 NVMe™ SSD. The new drive fuels gaming PC rigs with faster speeds and longer gameplay, offering up to 40% faster performance and up to 20% more power efficiency at maximum speed over the previous generation.1
“As more gamers look to make the transition to PCIe Gen4 systems, we believe it is important for the PC gaming community to have a variety of reliable, high-performing solutions to level up their gaming rigs,” said Stefan Mandl, vice president of sales at Western Digital. “The new WD_BLACK SN770 NVMe SSD makes Gen4 technology more accessible, helping more gamers get into the game faster and improve their overall gaming experience.”
The WD_BLACK SN770 NVMe SSD features a PCIe® Gen4 interface2 that delivers ultra-fast read speeds of up to 5,150MB/s3 (1TB and 2TB models only) to fuel in-game responsiveness, minimise stutter, and provide smooth streaming for a performance boost that gamers can see and feel. The drive is an accessible option for gamers looking to transition to Gen4 while also being backwards compatible for those with Gen3 systems. Purpose-built for PC gaming, it’s an ideal solution for enthusiast PC builders and long-time gamers looking to elevate their gaming experience.
Key features of the new drive include:
