Review: WD Blue 500Gb M.2 quick review. - Bought this SSD (500Gb M.2 Blue) to upgrade a new laptop I had bought, a HP Gaming 15 which only came with a 1tb mechanical drive and was sluggish in Windows, but otherwise the specs were great for a low end gaming laptop. (I5 8300h, 16gb Ram, GTX1050Ti £600 US to UK import). Installation was a breeze, and after booting to the drive and installing the OS the machines responsiveness has increased exponentially. The machine went from 1m15s boot time to around 8s. Windows and apps now open instantly where as from the 1tb mechanical drive it could sometimes take 3-5 seconds to open certain windows or apps. This drive series (Blue) is a great mid range, mid price product designed more towards faster random read/write performance than the WD Green series which is more designed towards power saving and efficiency. Both have similar large file transfer speeds but the Blue edition have much quicker random read/write speeds which is more beneficial in an OS environment. If you need balls to the wall performance then the Black series is the one to go for, albeit with an increased price tag. These current series of blue M.2 drives have also just been replaced with newer quicker line of products carrying the same product names, but again at an increased cost. For price / performance these Blue series drives hit the sweet spot especially for boot drives where you'll be storing your operating system.
Review: Upgrading a system disk was very easy with a bit of know-how - I have a HP Envy X360 15XXXX which came with a 128 M.2 SATA SSD (C:) with the system drive on and a standard 1TB 2.5" SATA drive (D:). I initially configured it so that the bulk of installed app files went to D: drive with only the essential ones going to C: drive. However, two and a half years on and C: was quite full. I decided to go for I purchased the 500GB M.2 version of this drive, along with a Sabrant M.2 SSD 2.5inch SATA III Aluminium enclosure adapter (EC-M25A). I already had a WAV Link dual bay SATA III disk cloner which will also act an external drive bay. I downloaded a free version of AOMEI Backupper for copying. For managing the disk, I used two built in utilities - Windows Powershell - needed to remove partitions. Windows Disk Management (Found under computer management in Control Panel). This is used firstly to mount the new disk and give it a drive letter. I suspect some who reported the disk DOA failed to do this. Also for managing the partition sizes. I proceeded as follows: 1. Having created recovery disks, the recovery partition was obsolete as it is a one-time deal creating the media. I used HP recovery manager to delete the partition - except it doesn't, it just deletes the data. 2. I used Powershell to delete the partition and there are instructions here if you don't know how to do it https://www.windowscentral.com/how-delete-drive-partition-windows-10 3. I inserted the new drive into the Sabrant adaptor, placed it in a bay of the WAV Link SATA bays and connected it to the USB 3 port. (There us a USB-C version of the adaptor to connect directly to a USB C port if you don't have a dive bay) 4. The drive is not detected in Windows until it has been mounted, so I opened Disk Management > Storage and found the unmounted drive. I right clicked and used the wizard to do a basic mount and assign it F: Drive. 5. I opened AOMEI Backupper and selected the clone option from the left-hand side. I selected the Disk Clone option from the bottom row. 6. On the next screen, I selected Disk 0 - the one with Windows on - as the source disk. 7. On the next screen, I selected Disk 2 - the new disk and the destination. Hit OK and it took less than 10 minutes to clone. 8. I then opened Disk Management and found the cloned volume at 118GB with around 350 GB of unallocated disk. 9. I right clicked on the cloned windows partition and selected 'Extend Volume' and allocated the maximum available space and the new window volume increased to 465GB. I removed it from the adaptor. 10. I turned of the Laptop, removed the rear cover and disconnected the battery by removing all the screws and lifting out. 11. I then located the current disk, removed the screw and replaced it with the cloned disk. 12. I reconnected the battery, replaced the cover and booted up the machine. There was a pause and a message as the BIOS had detected the hardware change. It then rebooted through to windows and everything looked hunky-dory. 13. The I ran all major applications and everything was sweet. It was as if I had done nothing, except the was an appreciable increase in speed, especially on boot up. and Windows hello was working great every time - it had started to hang and drop to PIN access. The disk has been sweet since Monday (now Thursday) and I am considering up grading the D: to an SSD as well. So far - very happy. I am of course keeping the Old disk safe . . . . just in case!
