Fast storage without the flagship price
The WD Blue SN5100 is a value PCIe 4.0 drive that gets close to top Gen 4 sequential speeds, at up to 7,100MB/s read and 6,700MB/s write. Random performance of up to 1,000K read and 1,300K write IOPS keeps boot times and game loading quick, and nCache 4.0 helps large file and project-folder copies finish faster. At 1TB it makes a sensible boot drive for a new build or an upgrade for a laptop with an M.2 2280 slot. It also works in PCIe 3.0 slots at Gen 3 speeds.
Who should spend more
Sandisk does not list a DRAM cache for this drive, and its 600 TBW rating is standard for the class. Heavy video editors or anyone writing large amounts of data daily should look at a DRAM-equipped drive such as the Samsung 990 PRO. There is no heatsink, so in a PS5 or a hot desktop slot use an M.2 cooler. Note that the SN5100 is now also sold under the Sandisk Optimus 5100 name. It is the same drive line, so don't be surprised by either label.
FEATURES:
- PCIe Gen 4.0 read speeds up to 7,100MB/s
- Sandisk nCache 4.0 for faster large file transfers
- Next-generation Sandisk 3D CBA NAND

Questions
Before you buy
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
