SSD M.2 PCIe 4.0 WD Green SN3000 500GB

WD Green SN3000 500GB – Fast PCIe 4.0 NVMe Storage

The WD Green SN3000 500GB is a compact NVMe SSD designed to provide fast and responsive storage for modern gaming PCs, desktops and everyday computing systems. With a 500GB capacity and an M.2 2280 form factor, it offers a practical storage solution while taking up minimal space inside the PC. The drive uses a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe interface and 3D NAND QLC technology, making it suitable for operating system storage, applications, games and everyday files. Its compact design allows it to install directly into a compatible motherboard without requiring additional SATA data or power cables.

Up to 5,000 MB/s Read Speed

The WD Green SN3000 500GB provides sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, allowing data to be accessed quickly for a range of everyday and gaming workloads. Sequential write performance reaches up to 4,100 MB/s, providing fast data transfers when installing applications, moving files or writing data to the drive. This combination of read and write performance makes the SN3000 a capable choice for users looking to move to modern PCIe 4.0 NVMe storage and improve overall system responsiveness.

500GB Capacity with 3D NAND QLC

With 500GB of storage, the WD Green SN3000 provides space for a Windows installation, essential applications, games and personal files while maintaining a compact footprint. The drive uses 3D NAND QLC technology as part of its storage architecture. Its M.2 2280 format makes it particularly convenient for modern desktop systems, as the SSD connects directly to a compatible motherboard. This also helps keep the internal PC layout clean by removing the need for separate storage cables.

PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe Interface

The SN3000 uses a PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe interface, providing the high-speed connection required for its rated sequential performance. PCIe 4.0 offers significantly greater bandwidth than older PCIe generations, making the drive well suited to modern motherboards equipped with compatible M.2 slots. The M.2 2280 form factor measures just 80 × 22 × 2.38 mm, allowing the SSD to fit neatly into the internal layout of compatible desktop PCs without occupying a traditional drive bay.

100 TBW Endurance and 1 Million Hour MTTF

The WD Green SN3000 500GB has a rated endurance of 100 TBW (Terabytes Written) and an MTTF of 1 million hours. These specifications provide defined figures for the drive's rated write endurance and mean time to failure. The SN3000 is therefore suited to a range of everyday storage workloads, including operating system use, applications, gaming and regular file transfers. Its combination of PCIe 4.0 performance, 3D NAND QLC and compact dimensions makes it a practical option for modern PC configurations.

Compact Storage for Modern PCs

Combining 500GB capacity, up to 5,000 MB/s sequential read performance and up to 4,100 MB/s sequential write performance, the WD Green SN3000 provides fast storage in a compact package. Its PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe interface and M.2 2280 form factor make it straightforward to install in compatible modern systems, while the 100 TBW endurance rating provides a defined durability specification. With dimensions of just 80 × 22 × 2.38 mm, it is an efficient storage option for gaming PCs, desktops and general-purpose systems where space and speed both matter.
