As a digital player, I especially like to research and try various good products. From my original article about solid state drive , I can see that I prefer to toss all kinds of solid state drives.
In 2019, Western Digital completed the full integration of SanDisk , and released the WD BLACK SN750, a black solid state hard drive, which caused a lot of shock in the solid state drive circle. SN750 is the flagship product of Western Digital PCIE3.0 . Nearly two years have passed. SN750 is still welcomed by many consumers. With the advent of SN850, the PCIE4.0 flagship has also been born, and this time SN750 SE is unveiled with an entry-level PCIE4.0 identity. Let's take a look at his specific performance.
1. Solid-state drive
WD_BLACK is a high-end product in the Western Digital product sequence, and its performance is the strongest in the product sequence, and the after-sales service lasts for 5 years.
SN750 SE overall is slightly inferior to SN750, its non-buffered design is more like WD Blue SN550. However, it supports the PCIE-4.0 transmission protocol and the 5-year warranty is also suitable for consumers who pursue cost-effectiveness. With the price of solid-state hard drives dropping all the way, it is clear that 1T capacity has become the current mainstream.
can reach a reading speed of up to 3600MB/S
750 out of the box
750There is no heat sink attached, and the whole is simple.
SN750 SE's main control comes from Phison, the model is PS5019-E19.
SN750 SE's product information label is located between the main control and the particle
span5T, the storage model is 60 SN750, SE's storage capacity is 60 SN750 particles It is 3D TLC technology.
Looking at the entire SN750 SE, the overall design of is simple and adopts a non-buffer design.
On the entire PCB , the SN 750 SE occupies only about 30% of the space, achieving a 1TB capacity. If the entire PCB space is fully utilized, the 4TB SN750 SE is just around the corner, which makes people even more looking forward to.
2. Experience WIN11
Recently, the preview version of WIN11 has been released, the interface is very beautiful, and people like it very much. For the freshest WIN11, you must use the latest SN750 SE for an early taste experience.
1. Install the system
Download the ISO file of the WIN11 preview version from the Internet,Then make the installation image through RUFUS. At the beginning, it was prompted that it could not be installed, and the security option needs to be turned on in the BIOS.
is ready to install from WIN11, start timing

WIN11 pattern appears and enters the system, it takes a total of 3 minutes and 2 seconds.
2. System startup
After starting the system, I was very uncomfortable at first sight. The start bar was actually in the middle, and it did feel like MAC .

WIN11 pays more attention to safety,Update a lot
After installing the driver for the hardware, restart the computer, record the boot time, 19 seconds.
Carry out simple optimization to further speed up the boot speed, SN750 SE can achieve as fast as 15 seconds.
3. Copy files
Use the mobile solid state hard disk and SN750 SE to copy files each other, and test the reading and writing speed.
Reading speed: Copying out more than 18G videos is limited by the write speed of the target solid state drive (Liteon T10 PLUS), the read speed is 1.1G/sec, otherwise it should be faster.
Writing speed: Copy the same video to SN750 SE, the writing speed is 1.35G/sec.
3. performance test
SN750 SE is relatively inferior to SN750 performance, but upgraded to PCIe Gen4 channel, read and write speed is still strong, performance test.

2, SLC CACHE cache change test_5span_pSpan_pSpan_pSpan 2.In order to pursue faster read and write speeds and achieve better performance, TLC process solid-state drives generally simulate a certain space of TLC space into SLC for data reading and writing to improve the performance of SSD. This space is called SLC Cache, but Since SLC Cache is a cache area, the capacity will certainly not be large. TLC SSD will set the specific SLC Cache space size according to the capacity of the product. For TLC SSD, if the SLC Cache is 1GB, and the actual TLC block consumed is about 3GB, it basically sacrifices 3 times the capacity in exchange for the essence of speed.
After the HD TUNE file benchmark test, write a 100G sample, you can see that the SLC Cache capacity of SN750 SE is about 65GB. In the first 65G of SLC Cache space, the write speed has been maintained at 2700MB/S, and after the SLC Cache space is used up, the write speed of fluctuates greatly, floating between 200MB/S~800MB/S, and compare later Stable in the 800MB/s interval. . 65G of SLC Cache space is sufficient for most daily applications.
3. Dashboard tool
In addition to hardware products, any brand with technical strength will launch a corresponding software management program to show the brand. Western Digital is no exception. Dashboard tools are the unique control software of the brand.
runs DASHBOARD, the software interface is very simple and easy to use.
status menu, which can display the capacity, temperature, interface, SMART information, etc. of the solid state drive.
performance menu, you can see the solid state read and write speed and TRIM optimization.
tool menu, you can update the firmware of the solid state drive, and Western Digital also provides an exclusive version of Acronis True image, which is more convenient for data backup and operating system cloning, which is very user-friendly .
setting menu, you can set the program startup and update, etc.

2p is the brightest mode of the game. , Can improve 4K reading and writing speed. During the game, you need to frequently read and write small and fragmented files, and improve 4K reading and writing, which is helpful for random reading and writing.
4. Game experience
selected several popular games for the game experience, which are "CONTROL" and "GODFALL" _5span7span
The overall game is well-made, first-class visual effects, and fun fighting system. It is indeed a masterpiece worth playing.
games "GODFALL" was developed by Counterplay, Gearbox is a third-person fantasy game based on melee combat. It supports the latest AMD FSR technology. The pleasure is to use exaggerated weapons and use dazzling moves to make you "slam" along the way. "Suddenly" and "Rushing"!
In the process of starting to entering these two games, except for the cutscenes, other processes that need to be loaded, the waiting time is generally only 2-3 seconds. If you need to read files during the game, you can start smoothly within 1 second.
IV. Summary
Throughout the entire evaluation performance of SN750 SE, is good as an entry-level PICE4.0, and its excellent 4K performance can provide good response in daily use. The read and write speed of is slightly higher than that of SN750. Although the speed outside the cache is lower than that of SN750, the cache capacity of 65GB can cope with most usage scenarios. The key is to be backward compatible with PCIE3.0. Users of the old platform will not lose a lot of performance, as well as the original TLC particles of SanDisk and the five-year warranty of the black disk with .
For players who are pursuing new tastes and limited budgets, whether it is its system installation speed, boot speed, super fast file read and write speed, etc., plus the temperature control is also good, use it to experience WIN11 is It couldn’t be more suitable. You can fly your WIN11 in 3 minutes. In addition, according to official information, the power consumption of SN750 SE is 30% lower than that of SN750. What are you waiting for ?
