Gen4 Speed Without the Heat and Power Penalty

Flagship Gen4 SSDs are fast, but they can run hot and draw more power, which matters in gaming laptops and small form factor PCs. Many gamers want Gen4 load times without the thermal issues.

The SN770 uses an efficient WD in-house controller with Host Memory Buffer to deliver up to 5,150MB/s while keeping power and temperatures down. The result is fast loading and steady performance in tight spaces.

Fast Loading for Modern Games

Sequential reads up to 5,150MB/s and random reads up to 650K IOPS cut load times compared with Gen3 and SATA drives. The SN770 works well with DirectStorage-capable games.

Efficient and Durable

The SN770’s power efficiency extends laptop battery life and reduces heat. Its 1,200 TBW rating at 2TB supports years of downloads and installs.
