  • PCIe Gen4 read speeds up to 5,000 MB/s for fast boots and app launches
  • 100 TB TBW rating supports heavy daily write workloads
  • Single-sided M.2 2280 design fits thin laptops and compact desktops
  • 500 GB NVMe capacity adds responsive storage for files and programs
  • WD Green SN3000 series built for reliable everyday computing performance

WD Green SN3000 NVMe SSD

This 500 GB solid-state drive uses the M.2 2280 form factor and a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface to deliver sequential read speeds up to 5,000 MB/s. It is built for notebooks and desktops that need a responsive storage upgrade. The drive offers 100 TB of total bytes written for everyday workloads.

Ideal for faster boot and app loads

Users who want quicker system start-up, snappier application launches and smoother multitasking on a compatible PCIe 4.0 platform will benefit from this drive. It is not suited for buyers who need higher endurance for heavy write-intensive workloads or capacities beyond 500 GB.

PCIe 4.0 x4 interface decides fit

Your motherboard or laptop must provide an M.2 slot wired for PCIe 4.0 x4 (or backward-compatible PCIe 3.0 x4) to use this NVMe drive. Without that slot the SSD cannot be installed or will not function.

Questions about this item

Does the WD Green SN3000 WDS500G4G0E-00CPS0 include a heatsink or mounting screw, or must I buy them separately?

The drive is a single-sided M.2 2280 module; no heatsink or screw is included, so you will need to supply a motherboard standoff screw and, if your board requires it, an aftermarket heatsink.

Should I choose the 500 GB WD Green SN3000 or a higher capacity model for better endurance?

This 500 GB model is rated for 100 TB TBW; larger capacities in the same series typically offer proportionally higher TBW, so select a larger drive if you expect heavier daily write workloads.

Will I see the full 5,000 MB/s read speed on a PCIe 3.0 motherboard slot?

The drive supports PCIe 4.0 x4; on a PCIe 3.0 slot it will operate at Gen 3 speeds, so sequential reads will be lower than the 5,000 MB/s headline figure.
