WD_BLACK™ SN8100 PCIe NVMe™ Gen 5 - With Heatsink (1TB/2TB/4TB/8TB)

The SN8100 is designed for high-end gaming rigs, creative workstations, and AI/data-intensive setups that demand the fastest storage available. With PCIe 5.0 x4 interface and a low-profile integrated heatsink (with optional RGB on some builds), it ensures sustained performance under heavy loads while maintaining thermals.

The SN8100 features sequential read speeds up to 14,900 MB/s and write speeds up to 14,000 MB/s (depending on variant). It supports over 2.3 million IOPS in some models, and uses 3D NAND technology for high endurance and reliability. The integrated aluminium heatsink ensures optimal thermal management and is optimized for PCIe 5.0 platforms, and comes with a 5-year warranty for long-term peace of mind.
