SanDisk's new 3D-NAND TLC-based drive is very competitive, reasonably priced, and all-around excellent. It's a safe alternative to the iconic SSD 850 EVO.

Very good overall performance; Aggressively priced; Includes cloning software

Not quite as fast as Samsung's two-year-old SSD 850 EVO; Three-year warranty; not five

The SanDisk Ultra 3D is a new client SSD similar to that of the WD Blue 3D. Because this drive is on the lower end of the performance scale, its main application will be general upgrades from an HDD-based system to solid-state technology for faster boot up times and speedier overall performance.

Improves its performance over the WD Blue non-3D NAND model it replaces; 2TB model aligns with other ind

WD recently updated its mainstream Blue line of solid state drives with new 64-layer 3D BiCS NAND flash memory. When we first took a look at the , we found it to be an admirable performer with competitive pricing.

The Western Digital Blue 3D and the SanDisk Ultra 3D give us our second look at BiCS 3 flash. The first time we got our hands-on BiCS 3, it was with Toshiba's XG5. We have been impressed with BiCS 3 on both occasions. BiCS 3, as far as we know, will be only of the TLC variety.

Comes with Acronis Disk Clone so you can replace the old hard drive which slows down your PCs performance. The swap made a HUGE difference in my wife's economy PC. I added 4GB of memory then cloned her current drive onto this drive. Acronis is awesome and flawless cloning. Quick clone job too!

works fine, only thing to note as with most of these lower mid tier drives once you go over 50% drive space performance starts to drop. Still way better than a HDD

There are still lots of PCs out there that would take on new life with a simple hard-drive-to-SSD upgrade , and Sandisk's Ultra 3D is one of the best,...

Very good overall and sustained performance; Affordable in all capacities

A bit slow reading smaller files and folders; 2TB version has a lower TBW rating

Having arrived at the third generation of the BiCS 3D NAND, developed by Sandisk and Toshiba, WD thinks the time has come to base consumer products on the new technology. The performance of the WD Blue 3D and Sandisk Ultra 3D are on-par with the 3D NAND-based Micron SSDs and only slightly worse than...

There are still lots of PCs out there that would take on new life with a simple hard-drive-to-SSD upgrade , and Sandisk's Ultra 3D is one of the best, if not the best SSD for the job.

1TB Drive from SanDisk – one could only dream of a 1TB SSD back in the past but now it seems that it is a reality but at quite a high cost but that's the price you pay to get high-speed fast storage, especially for notebook computers when you're working on the go.
