Review: Great drives - I don't normally like Western digital products because I've had a lot of failures in their spinning disks but these seem like some of the only non-enterprise priced SSDs that are actually meant for NAS use. They work fantastic. I have 10 of them in my Synology FS 2500 and I have absolutely no complaints. They respond quickly and have been extremely reliable. Review: SSDs are worth their weight in gold nowadays. - SSDs are worth their weight in gold nowadays. I got my order on time and the SSDs where new and functional, as expected. I bought at the right time because they were $100 more each just a week later! ## Features - Storage optimized for caching in NAS systems to rapidly access your most frequently used files. - Superior endurance can handle the heavy read and write loads demanded by NAS, giving you the reliability you need in a 24/7 environment. - Purpose-built for NAS with proven Western Digital 3D NAND to deliver maximum SATA performance to both home and business users. - Reduces latency and improves responsiveness for oltp databases, multi-user environments, photo rendering, 4K and 8K video editing, and more. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07YFG3R5N | | Additional Features | Data Recovery Service | | Best Sellers Rank | #122 in Internal Solid State Drives | | Brand | Western Digital | | Built-In Media | SSD | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 1 | | Color | Red | | Compatible Devices | Desktop | | Connectivity Technology | SATA | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 2,619 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 560 Megabytes Per Second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 1 TB | | Enclosure Material | Information Not Available | | Form Factor | 2.5-inch | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00718037872384 | | Hard Disk Description | Solid State Hard Drive | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Serial ATA-600 | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 7200 RPM | | Hard-Drive Size | 1 TB | | Hardware Connectivity | SATA 6.0 Gb/s | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Installation Type | Internal Hard Drive | | Item Dimensions L x W x Thickness | 3.95"L x 2.75"W x 0.28"Th | | Item Type Name | Solid State Drive | | Item Weight | 0.15 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Sandisk Technologies, Inc. | | Mfr Part Number | WDS100T1R0A | | Model Name | WD Red SA500 | | Model Number | WDS100T1R0A | | Number of Items | 1 | | Read Speed | 560 Megabytes Per Second | | Special Feature | Data Recovery Service | | Specific Uses For Product | Business, Personal | | UPC | 718037872384 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 5-year manufacturer's limited warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Western Digital - **Color:** Red - **Compatible Devices:** Desktop - **Connectivity Technology:** SATA - **Digital Storage Capacity:** 1 TB - **Hard Disk Description:** Solid State Hard Drive - **Hard Disk Form Factor:** 2.5 Inches - **Hard Disk Interface:** Serial ATA-600 - **Installation Type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Special Feature:** Data Recovery Service ## Images ![Western Digital 1TB WD Red SA500 NAS 3D NAND Internal SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s, 2.5"/7mm, Up to 560 MB/s - WDS100T1R0A, Solid State Hard Drive - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715kq4Eo0HL.jpg) ![Western Digital 1TB WD Red SA500 NAS 3D NAND Internal SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s, 2.5"/7mm, Up to 560 MB/s - WDS100T1R0A, Solid State Hard Drive - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21mWos+m1dL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great drives *by J***N on May 17, 2026* I don't normally like Western digital products because I've had a lot of failures in their spinning disks but these seem like some of the only non-enterprise priced SSDs that are actually meant for NAS use.

I got my order on time and the SSDs where new and functional, as expected. I bought at the right time because they were $100 more each just a week later! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable product, easy to install *by A***K on November 8, 2025* Excellent product. Working great in my HP Desktop Computer. Very easy to install. WD software downloaded from their website did not work for backing up old content, prior to replacing original SSD. I downloaded free 3rd party software to backup my 120GB original SSD so that I could replace it with this excellent 512GB SSD. After that installation of new 512GB SSD was straight forward. ## Frequently Bought Together - Western Digital 1TB WD Red SA500 NAS 3D NAND Internal SSD - SATA III 6 Gb/s, 2.5"/7mm, Up to 560 MB/s - WDS100T1R0A, Solid State Hard Drive - DSLRKIT 2.5" SSD to 3.5" SATA Hard Disk Drive HDD Adapter Caddy Tray CAGE Hot Swap Plug --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/171606006-western-digital-1tb-wd-red-sa500-nas-3d-nand-internal](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/171606006-western-digital-1tb-wd-red-sa500-nas-3d-nand-internal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
