and blazing speed.
High capacity with enhanced reliability
A WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD uses 3D NAND technology not only for higher capacities (up to 2TB1) than the previous generation WD Blue SSDs, but also to help reduce cell-to-cell interference for enhanced reliability.
Enhanced power efficiency
Offering improved endurance, a WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSD features an active power draw up to 25% lower2 than previous generations of WD Blue SSDs. And with less power used, you’re able to work longer before recharging your laptop.
Superior performance for high-end computing
For high-end computing applications like gaming, HD media playback, or creative software, look to WD Blue 3D NAND SATA SSDs. 3D NAND technology helps enable sequential read speeds up to 560MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 530MB/s for fast system boot-ups, quick application responses, and rapid transfer speeds3.

    Aren't the NOR ones better?

      i see what you did there, its NOR logical

    • lbft on 17/04/2018 - 22:05

      I realise you're just being a smartarse but NOR flash is a thing that exists. It's just not really useful for making a PC SSD out of.

        Have you tried?

          Yes, but I kept dropping the electrons on the floor. They're fiddly little buggers.

          @Procyon:

          NOR flash provides systems with the fastest bootable memory solution, is easy to implement, and requires minimal ongoing management due to the underlying cell structure. Because of the cell structure, NOR flash is inherently more reliable than other solutions.

          I rest my case…

          @jv: Did you notice the densities available? Up to a whopping 2Gb (256MB). Coming soon to OzBargain: jv presents the world's smallest SSD!

          My first computer only had 4K of RAM.

    If you miss out on the deal (only 50 in stock), you can get it for a couple of dollars extra at Amazon.

      The only epic fail is that you turned up half a day early. It's for 10-11 PM.

    Shipping is an extra $8.95, it actually is cheaper from amazon.com (per PlushToys note)

    Edit - bought from amazon.com, total including shipping is USD 125.34 which the MasterCard website tells me is AUD 161.49, which comes out to $7 cheaper than this. Enough for two coffees!
