About the Western Digital Red SN700 1TB PCI Express NVMe 3.0 x4 M.2 2280 Solid State Drive

Western Digital WDS100T1R0C 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD

The WDS100T1R0C is Western Digitals Red SN700 at 1TB, an M.2 2280 board running PCI Express NVMe 3.0 x4 on triple-level cell flash, built for NAS enclosures. The board measures 0.86 inches wide. This is the NVMe member of the Red SA500 family, so the two drives share the same NAS-rated endurance but connect to completely different sockets. One is the right choice, and the other wont work at all, depending on what your NAS offers.

Key Features

1TB of capacity on a single M.2 2280 board

PCI Express NVMe 3.0 x4, with four Gen3 lanes running to the drive

Triple-level cell flash, three bits held in every memory cell

WD Red product line, SN700 series, built for NAS duty

M.2 2280 board, 0.86 inches wide

Western Digital part number WDS100T1R0C

Performance and Applications

NAS makers have been adding M.2 slots to their units for a few years, and those slots dont all do the same thing. Some units take M.2 drives purely as cache, accelerating the spinning disks behind them rather than presenting a separate volume. Others treat the drive as a full storage volume in its own right. A handful support both depending on how DSM or the equivalent is configured. Know which use your unit makes of the slot before buying, because that question decides whether 1TB of cache makes sense or whether the enclosure needs something larger.

Compatibility and Installation

Check the NAS makers compatibility list and confirm the slot carries PCIe NVMe, since M.2 SATA slots are common too and this drive wont work in one. If your unit pairs M.2 drives for cache, this one needs a match beside it.

Western Digital WDS100T1R0C 1TB SSD for NAS M.2 NVMe Slots

For an enclosure with an M.2 slot wired for NVMe rather than SATA, this fills it with Red-rated endurance. 1TB of SN700 flash across four Gen3 lanes.
